What P filters do you have? I have the holder and might be interested is adding to my small set of filters.
Anybody got any ideas of fair prices (fair to both buyer and seller) for these items as I'm pretty clueless.

Z1 body,good condition
SF7 body, small crack on display panel and a bit of corrosion on lens mount,
Sigma 70-300mm APO macro(this has a large crack on the front of the lens which, strangely enough, doesn't seem to affect the image quality. The AF however, only now works on the Z1 and not the SF7).
Vivitar 100mm Macro (mf)with 1:1 adapter. Exc. condition
Cable switch F
A few Cokin P filters and holder.
I've also put a 1.7x Af adapter on Ebay as I've seen them on there for silly money. Not really bothered about getting rid of it actually but I do like a bit of silly money! I've put a starting price of £200 but again, I'm open to offers.
Cheers

I got a DA*300mm a few months ago and bought a pentax 1.7x convertor a few weeks later. Recently Ive been leaving behind my sigma 150-500mm and just using the above, adding the teleconvertor when the subject is too far away and the light is good enough. That said ona recent trip to Norfolk the light was poor but I managed these with the tele on, both are cropped

The images are sometimes noticably softer when you crop heavily with the tele on but sometimes not. I find the autofocus can lock slightly off when the tele is on.
