If anyone has a Samsung GX20 in good condition please let me know.

I know it’s an old camera & a K20D clone but I’m interested in acquiring one again.

Looking to buy a Samsung GX20 that has been well looked after & is in a good condition.
I realise this is a Pentax K20D clone but it is specifically the Samsung variant I’m after.
Please PM me if you have one for sale.
Regards
Rob

Congratulations Rob. Talk about leaving it to the last minute though!

Incidentally, how do you find the Tamron 70-200 f2.8 / Pentax 1.4HD combo for planes? Have you tried it on MF? Would be interested as its a potentially very useful range and seems to offer a lot of flexibility.

I used that combination extensively during this season and it was very useful, found the lens worked very well with the K-3ll but didn't use it on MF though.

Well it's taken me quite a lot of attempts...but I've finally had one of my aviation photos printed in a magazine
The photo of Vulcan XH558 & a pair of F15s was taken as they flew over RAF Lakenheath in August and is in the current issue of "The Vulcan", the Vulcan to the Sky Club magazine.
I used a K-3ll & Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 with the 1.4x HD converter.

I purchased a K-3ll earlier this year having sold my K5-lls and used it extensively during the airshow season. I used it with a DA*300mm f4 & Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 (with the 1.4x converter). I found that it performed so much better when taking photos of aircraft and I've got a lot more keepers from it. Didn't notice the K-3ll hunt anywhere near as much.

I'm very pleased with the images I have taken with it and have no interest in the FF model, this suits my needs completely.

Looking to buy the above lenses, the WR versions ideally.

It's for my son who has just bought his first DSLR - a K30 from SRS.

If anyone has any of these lenses in a good condition then please send me a PM.

Thanks

Rob
