Hi Pete. That was a fairly basic omission! £80?

I have added a couple of shots taken with the Sigma 10-20 to the linked web page. Shot in RAW on K7. Processed to JPG and re-sized in CS3.

I have to make room in my camera bag for some new toys. Not switching from Pentax (I'm very pleased with my K7!) but the following items are surplus to requirements.

K10D Body only. All manuals and accessories in original packaging with 2 additional batteries. Screen is unmarked - £240

Sigma 10-20 EX DC f4-5.6 in excellent condition, with original case and packaging - £295

All prices include P&P, but please add 5% if paying by PayPal - or gift the money.

Pentax AF-FTZ-500 flashgun - a little scuffed but in good working order. No box or instructions but will be securely packed for posting. Manual can be downloaded from here

Please check compatibility before buying. As far as I know, it is compatible with film SLRs and early DSLRs.

Thanks you for looking. I am happy to answer any questions by PM.

I used a lanyard from (I think) a USB drive. It has a thin loop attached by a spring clip to a thicker neck strap. After taking the remote apart, I made two grooves either side of one of the corner screw posts and then put it back together with the loop round the screw post and out through the grooves.

Thanks all. Bristol Cameras do not appear to be a Pro Dealer so I guess 1 year warranty applies. I will make sure Pentax are aware of how disappointed I am!

I use the Pentax IR remote for tripod work. I have attached it to a lanyard so I can wear it round my neck. Saves dropping it and helps you work out which way round it is in the dark!

I find it much less hassle than a wired remote.

My 16-50 is playing up. It does not seem to AF when the camera (K7) is first switched. After some time (maybe 10 minutes), it starts working normally. I have cleaned the contacts but this has made no difference. Other lenses (including SDM) work as expected. Anyone else had this kind of problem? Anyone know how long the (UK) warranty period is on DA* lenses?
