It's a shame to read this. Why don't you speak to the mods before making a firm decision? I've been here for years and only have the free account.

Bump and final price drop to £45. If no takers then I'll just keep it.

Bump. No-one interested in this lens?

I use the Toshiba FlashAir. It's pretty good but the app stopped working on my phone (still works on my wife's though) so I need to use the browser method to get photos off it by wifi, which is a bit of a pain.

I always have another card in the K3 and only copy to the wifi card the shots that I want to send to my phone. It's extremely useful to be able to send photos to my phone while on the move.

Do the prices include UK delivery?

Can you comment on the state of the lenses (mechanics, optics)?

Thanks

Bump and price drop to £30 delivered. That's as low as I'm prepared to go and already around 25% less than the usual going rate for this lens.

I will be over in the UK next week so will take the opportunity to advertise here a Ricoh 50mm f/2 lens I have for sale. The lens is in good condition physically and works fine. It has some very light, barely visible tendrils of what I assume is some kind of fungus but could be small fibres, but they're on the aperture and are not visible when the aperture is fully open. They do not affect the image quality in any way because they're over the aperture blades, not the glass and are barely visible. There is some minor dust in the lens. Externally the lens is in superb condition, the aperture ring clicks nicely and focus is smooth. This lens does not have the infamous Ricoh pin.

It comes with original front cap and non-original rear cap.

This is an extremely sharp lens, even wide open, with very favourable reviews on the US forum here: http://www.pentaxforums.com/userreviews/ricoh-rikenon-50mm-f-2.html

I'm looking for just £15 delivered in the UK, ideal for someone looking for a very cheap fast 50. Payment by bank transfer or Paypal (buyer pays any fees) or in person in Edinburgh. I'm heading over on Friday afternoon so would need to know by then if anyone is interested in order to take it with me. I'd be able to post it on Monday the 23rd.

I will be over in the UK next week so will take the opportunity to advertise here an M 28mm f/3.5 lens I have for sale. The lens is in very good condition optically and physically and works fine. The aperture works fine and focus is nice and smooth. There's very little dust in it for a lens of it's age. It comes with non-original caps.

This is the slightly slower but optically superior 28mm of the M series. Less common but much better than the f/2.8 version.

I'm looking for £35 delivered in the UK. I will post elsewhere but at additional cost. Payment by bank transfer or Paypal (buyer pays any fees) or in person in Edinburgh. I'm heading over on Friday afternoon so would need to know by then if anyone is interested in order to take it with me. I'd be able to post it on Monday the 23rd.
