If Sigma can't get the bayonet I doubt very much anyone else will what with it being such a rare lens in Pentax mount.

If you send it to Sigma UK they will often send the lens on to Japan if they can't fix it themselves.
Hmmm ... will talk to Sigma as well as third party repair companies and se what they have to say.

Thanks for your help guys

Hello All,

Looking for some advice. I seem to have lightly damaged the metal part of the bayonet during one of my trips. That being metal, I have used a screwdriver and re positioned it in place and it works fine now but I would like to get a new Bayonet if possible.

I called Sigma UK at least 10 times now trying to follow up on a spare bayonet if they can get one from Japan but with no success.

Any advice on how I can get it replaced ?

Thanks,

Karthik

Hello All,

I have this stylish bag in excellent condition for sale. I bought it september last year used it once and then bought an F-Stop Loka in November so haven't found any use for the Nat Geo bag at all.

Description from Amazon:
" The EARTH EXPLORER Photo Bag collection reflects National Geographic's dedication to exploration and conservation. The bags are an ideal blend of today's protective carrying technology and a traditional 'explorer' look and feel. Each bag in the EARTH EXPLORER collection has solid brass buckles with an antique finish. The Earth Explorer NG 5160 Medium Backpack can carry all your essentials while keeping your photographic and video gear, as well as a laptop, safe and secure, plus it allows ample room for personal effects. External Dimensions 17.72 x 13.39 x 8.27 inches. Internal Dimensions 9.06 x 11.02 x 4.33 inches. Weight 3.37 lbs."

Been busy the whole of this year with my wedding and now doing some budgetting, realise I need to get rid of some stuff to put it into a house deposit pot

Asking price is £120 only including shipping within UK. Payment by Paypal ( buyer should pay fee or send as gift item ) or bank transfer.
