As the title says. I have a Teleplus 2x macro converter in a PK mount and would like to get one in a PKA mount to use with my A 50mm. If anyone has one in good condition that they don't need any longer please send me a pm. Thanks

Arrived today, Just as described, well packed and delivered very quickly. Thanks Laurence.

I have a surplus copy of this wonderful all metal fast prime. It's in excellent condition - no scratches on the glass, a miniscule amount of dust if you look very, very hard and cosmetically excellent except for a tiny scratch on the outer rim on the front just above the '1' of '1.7'. It has the original rear cap and a replacement front cap. It's a very good sharp copy - all the macro photos on my portfolio have been taken with this and my Teleplus macro converter which will also be available shortly once I have sourced a PKA replacement. £35 delivered to the UK.

Blimey, you have to be quick. PM also sent, but probably too late

I had an 18-250mm for about a year as a travel lens and loved it. It's only as my interests have developed that I sold it and bought a wider zoom and a couple of primes and I'm not entirely sure still that it was the right decision. I certainly didn't ever have any sensor dirt problems whilst that was my only travel lens as it stayed on all the time. The quality is excellent in the wide and mid range, goes off a bit towards the long end, but is still pretty good.

As long as you buy sensibly you will not lose out if you decide it isn't for you. Prices do seem to vary a bit, but around £230/£240 on the forum would be about right and perhaps £270 or so on Ebay. Just occasionally one will slip through the net on Ebay and you can get a bargain - worth checking the camera bundles - I missed a Tamron one bundled with a Samsung GX10 for £190 a week or two ago

Same here. The K-r is fantastic, especially now that a good used one can be had for £200 or less, but so far the K-30 edges it a little and at £319 with 2 year warranty there was no contest.

Sorry, just noticed you are in Laindon which is around 90 miles from me so probably too far. Still, you are welcome to have a go with them if you are up this way sometime.

Not sure where you are in Essex Dave, but I'm on the Norfolk/Suffolk border if you want to try a different K-30. We have two of them.
