Hello!

Would you send K-r to Slovenia?
Hi. In principle, yes, but fully insured postage is quite expensive. I'd be looking for £300 to send it Royal Mail International Signed For with up to £500 insurance.

pm me second regarding the 10-20 if you could.
I knew I shouldn't have put the 10-20mm in the initial post Will do.

I haven't looked at prices for the other stuff yet, sorry.

I'll only list them all once I sell the K-r - I don't want to sell all the lenses and accessories first, then find I haven't sold the camera

Once the K-r is sold I'll pm you first before listing the 10-20mm, if that's o.k.?

Unfortunately ongoing issues with my neck & spine mean that a DSLR and accessories are simply too heavy for me to use as a travel camera setup any longer. It's a tough decision because the K-r is such a great camera and I doubt that anything more portable will come close, but if I can't take it with me then I won't get any photos at all.

So I have for sale a Pentax K-r which was purchased in August last year. It's in excellent condition with a shutter count of 6441, though that might rise very slightly in the meantime. The LCD screen has a few light surface scratches if you look very closely in the right light, but nothing of any consequence. There are a few specks of dust in the viewfinder, but these obviously don't transfer on to any pictures.

I don't have the original kit lens so it's body only, but does come complete with the original box and packaging, USB cable, battery charger and battery, plus the original body cap. Also included are two after market spare batteries, an original unused Pentax D-BH109 AA battery holder, a Think Tank 20 Digital Holster and a replacement neoprene neck strap (more comfortable than the original!), all in excellent condition as well.

Looking for £290 for the lot including delivery by RMSD.

I also have a number of other DSLR accessories which I will be listing separately, including a KATA DR 467i rucksack, a Pentax 'M' 50mm f1.7 lens, a Teleplus MC7 2X macro teleconverter, a Sigma 10-20mm super wide angle lens, a Redsnapper RS-284 tripod with a RSH-12 Ball Head plus some other bits and pieces.

Pictures to follow once I can find a camera to take a picture of the K-r with!

In fairness that's probably more down to the photographer than the lens

This one maybe?

I haven't used it a great deal to be honest - hence the sale. It can go much softer than I have demonstrated in my pictures, almost too soft for me and I guess that's where you need to experiment to get the right balance. The 'rose' picture was shot without the macro setting engaged just to show that it's a decent 135mm lens in it's own right.

Can't believe no one seems to want such a fine piece of glass...
There's a difference between 'not wanting' and 'not being able to afford', sadly
