Many thanks Danny - a pleasure dealing with you

Bloomin good for a 'starter', Danny . . Great DOF effect across the leaf, and it looks like a truly razor sharp lens...

Pentax SMC DA 50-200mm F4-5.6 WR.

Bought in December 2010 as part of a K7/two lens kit deal from Wilkinson Camera. I used this lens a few times but then acquired the 18-135, so it's no longer getting used and needs a new home.

Boxed with original front/rear caps, manual and hood. Excellent condition.

£115 incl RMSD. Payment by bank transfer or paypal gift (buyer pays fees). Any questions etc just let me know.

Tim

Loving this thread.

Nice effort Danny, but just not minimalist enough - you've captured far far too much detail. I might be wrong (in which case :blush, but the mesh width on those railings and characteristically poorly sorted sand (so accurately rendered) can only mean this is the beach 356 m north of the Sutton on Sea prom. Photos of such popular landmarks hardly qualify...

The DA40.

Teeny tiny thing of splendour and joy, a key pentax characteristic for me, and excellent IQ. I also like the FOV (although I know others don't) and just seem to produce a higher proportion of 'keepers' with this than other lenses.

I used to work on Bedford Square and go across to Gordon Square for lunchtime summer picnics... so your photos bring back some memories

Like both of these (tho' shame the walker on #1 is not just a little further up the path to give more separation from the bust - and like trickle says it's maybe a little busy). Nice contrast in #2 between the sharpness of the bust vs the background.

Just by your office : [Many moons ago I worked at UCL]
