Hi, sorry this has now sold.

Pentax 12-24mm F4 DA. Unboxed but in great condition. Arguably the best non-prime Pentax lens. Still retailing for over £700 in stores.

Supplied with original caps, lens hood and a 77mm UV filter.

£370 including next day special delivery.

Does someone want to use this lens for portraits?

Surely they'd be better off with something in the 50mm - 70mm range on an APS-C sensor

The Sigma 35mm f1.4 has become a popular lens for wedding photographers. Used at 24mm I can see how the 18mm-35mm could be handy too.

Camera is now sold.

Lenses still available.

Right. It seems that some people want a split. Here's the updated list. Some new products added too.

K5 body boxed with accessories - £265
Shutter count in the region of 20k so plenty of life left in it. Plus you get the grip, remotes and extra battery thrown in.

Pentax 35mm f2.4 SMC DA AL Lens - £85
Boxed with flexible lens hood, original receipt and transferable warranty. Only bought in 2014. Here's the last photo taken with it

Pentax 12-24mm f4 DA ED AL IF Lens - £450
Includes hood and 77mm UV filter.

Pentax FA 80-200 - £20
Nothing to say about this lens. It's truly rubbish. I bought it to take a shot of the moon but never got around to it. here's a shot I took with it over the park.

SMC Pentax-M 1:2 50mm - £15
Couple of tiny chips to the coating of the front element but images aren't affected. Focus is nice and smooth and the aperture ring works as it should.

The time has come for me to me sell up. I've had a short but enjoyable time with Pentax, but I'm moving on to a full frame setup.

Items for sale are:


Pentax K5 body - boxed with all manuals and accessories.
it good overall condition, though there is some wear around the tripod mount (as to be expected), and mark a centimiter or so up from the lens release button.

Comes with:
Wired remote
Wireless IR remote,
Two batteries
Grip + adapter to use AA batteries as well spare OEM battery


Pentax SMC DA 35mm F2.4 AL
Great little lens, comes in oringal packaging. Bought in from SRS in March 2014. Still in warranty.


Pentax 12-24mm UWA lens
Unboxed but in great condition. Comes with lens hood (usually sold separately for £20)

















Ideally I'd like to sell the lot as a package for £800. At which point I'll also throw in a Pentax FA 80-200 lens and a Hoya 77mm UV filter.

I am open to splitting the 12-24mm. I'll only split the body and the 35mm if I get takers for both.

Thanks

I've got the following coming up for sale at the end of the week.

Used K5 fully boxed with two batteries, grip, charger, remote, Pentax 35mm f2.8 with rubber hood (boxed), Pentax 12-24mm f4 with hood(unboxed).

The 12-24 lens add a fair bit to the cost of that package so it might be more than you're looking for.

I'm expecting to shift the lot at £820 including special delivery.

I bought a 16-45mm and a Tamron 17-50 a while back.

The Tamron was used and I couldn't set the right amount of adjustment to correct the focus issues. That being said I still found it a lot better than the Pentax 16-45. The construction to my mind was better, and images were cleaner and sharper.

How does DSS not lead to star trails?

On multiple 25 second shots the stars will have moved a great deal.

Well the 20-40 is a new limited. So those rumours don't sound too credible.
