A few more and possibly the last - I think I've culled all the "bad" ones from the day now. Thanks for the kind words so far The last picture impressed me with how sharp the 18-135 can be - it's a pretty severe crop at 135mm, but still tons of detail.

Very true - but one gets rather sick of all the photos of Oxford's most famous while living here. If I had a penny for every photo of the Rad Cam...

Hi from Oxford. New photographer, picked up a camera for the first time in December (an Olympus OM-20), progressed to a better camera (an Olympus OM-2N), then jumped to digital/Pentax in February.

Still learning the ropes, but at least I'm no longer just lurking on the forum...

Lens pictures:

Also worth noting - rear cap is a pushcap-type rather than bayonet.

For sale now that I have an 18-135...

Nice little compact lens, split from my KS-2 kit so no box, and less than a year old. Both caps, mint condition. Pictures to follow when I get home.

Looking for £50 including Royal Mail Special Delivery.

It involved a box, packing foam, duct tape, and a slim-fast tub. Neat lens transportation solution

I was torn between the exact same two lenses - but I figured I could grab this one and it won't depreciate much (so long as I don't wreck it...), so it works as a stepping stone

Safely received in a truly inspired packaged style, completely mint as described, and looks to be a good copy from quick testing. Cheers

New signup, so unable to send PMs, but if sale falls through for whatever reason, I'd be interested!
