For sale:

Pentax smc DFA 100mm f2.8 WR Macro Lens - £349

Description:

Excellent condition with very light marks of usage, almost as new. Boxed with all original accessories.

Delivery:

I'd prefer collection in person and inspections are more than welcome. With advance arrangement I can meet anywhere between Watford and Milton Keynes and nearby surroundings.

I can also post via insured Royal Mail delivery. In this case P&P would be added to the price. I will accept bank transfer or PayPal but all of the money transfer costs has to be at the buyer expense. I will send the items after payment has been cleared and only to UK (sorry overseas fellows)

I am temporary removing the remaining items from sale, since I am going abroad for a while. Will re-list the items when I get back again in September.

Mods, please lock/archive this thread. Thanks.

K-5 II focusing is sensitive up to -3EV on paper. That puts it among the best DSLRs in that respect. -3EV is so dark in the real world as you won't see almost anything in the viewfinder.

Remote control via smartphone/tablet is cool and useful function. I had that in my new Canon 6D and I can see where it could be beneficial. Shame this is not offered for Pentax.

Reasons for sale:

Well, I have moved to the dark side and got Canon 6D. Would feel sorry to see all of my Pentax stuff going but after the honeymoon with my new love I decided to build up around FF Canon system.

I think Raynox is a very good introduction into macro photography on a budget. However it is far more easier to work with DCR-150 compared to DCR-250, because the latter has quite strong magnification and the dof is really thin.

Exactly. I can't understand the criticism of lack of edge sharpness for these type of lenses. Edge sharpness is even less required for bokeh
That's because a lot of "reviewers" are picturing brick walls, where edge sharpness is of a greatest importance
