Up for sale is my Ricoh GR.

It's a great little camera - very discreet and pocketable. Perfect for street shooting and/or travelling very light.

I purchased it second hand in March, but like the previous owner I'm afraid I just don't use it often enough and it's difficult to justify keeping it when I have 3 other cameras! So I need to have a bit of a clear out. I don't really want to sell it but something has to go!

It has a low shutter count of 370 as of today, and the sensor is clean.
I've always used a camera belt bag/case when I've taken it out rather then keeping it in my pocket, which I suspect is where the dust some people get on their sensor comes from.
As you'd expect for a camera with such a low shutter count it's in great condition.
There's a spare (third party) battery with it, and the 8GB eyefi card, and of course the original box.

Asking price is £350 delivered in the UK.

Difficult to tell with the resolutions as uploaded, but I think the Samyang edges it.

Thank you for your kind comments. I hope you get as much pleasure from using it as I did.

I may come to regret the system change - I know others have done the same and returned to Pentax. It's a system that's been great to use, but I've decided to give a smaller and lighter MFT system a try. I'll be hanging on to the MX-1 so I'll be keeping an eye on this forum. I have to say all the Pentax forums I've been on are the best of any photography forum I've looked at. It's a great community.

After much thought about a system change and following a spontaneous visit to SRS yesterday while I was in London I've decided to (sadly) change systems for something smaller and lighter. Whether or not I'll live to regret that remains to be seen, but now up for sale is the following kit.

All kit is in good condition (I like to think in very good condition). Like many of you I feel the kit is there to be used and if it does get the odd mark then I'll not lose any sleep over it. But that said I do like to take good care of the kit and won't abuse it.

£350 K-3 body (less than 7000 actuations) + spare battery
£ 75 DBG5 Grip
£300 HD DA16-85 (probably my most useful lens)
£400 HD DA 20-40
£280 SMC DA 15 Limited
£260 SMC DA 35 Limited macro (there is a scuff mark about 1mm on the edge of the lens cap)
£250 SMC DA 70 Limited
£400 Sigma APO DG EX 100-300 F4 (One for you K-1 owners or prospective owners)
£ 30 Limited Lens Case (the 5 lens case)

Prices are plus postage.

Please let me know if you'd like any more detailed information or pictures.

(I may be out and about later today - Sun 25th - and may not be able to respond straight away)

Some lovely Limited Lenses for sale.
£280 SMC DA 15 Limited
£260 SMC DA 35 Limited Macro
£250 SMC DA 70 Limited

Also for sale are 2 x Pentax Limited Lens cases.
£30 each
(The photo below shows a little dust on them, but they are both in good clean condition)

I'll be really sad to see them go, but I'm just not using them enough so it's difficult to justify keeping them.
They are such finely engineered items that are a real pleasure to use.

They're all in very good condition. No dust or fungus etc. and all in proper working order.
Pentax soft lens pouches present for all of them.
Boxes available for the 15 & 35 lenses.
Unfortunately the lens cap on the 35 does have a scrape mark (about 1mm or so) on the bottom corner which I've never found noticeable in normal use (when the cap is mounted the right way up!).
