The lens is surplus to requirements so is for sale. In very nice condition with clean and clear lens glass, smooth focus and clean, snappy aperture. There are one or two dust specks on interior lens surfaces, no fungus or scratches. Focus is smooth. Lens mount and filter thread in good condition and working well.

£40 plus £4 RMSD in UK, £8 elsewhere in the world.

Now surplus to requirements. In excellent condition - clean and clear lens glass and smooth zoom. Needless to say, the PKA mount allows use on film and digital bodies in all exposure modes, manual focus.

This is a zoom macro converter giving variable magnification and can be used as a standard converter also. Best results with lenses 50mm and above.

Included are front and rear caps and a case which is slightly tatty.

£35 plus postage: £4.00 RMSD in UK, £8.00 elsewhere in the world.

That is sad. I didn't know the firm was family run.

I tended to use an MX with 40/2.8 or 50/1.4 in the old days, as well as a rangefinder with fast 35mm lens, so tend to do the same with a K7 and Kr now: either a 24/1.8 or 35/2 attached or a 40DA if really going small. Most of my shots are low light and/or indoors, so these setups suit me well.

Sent a pm, but see you want a rectangular hood. Your best bet might be a 48-49mm step up ring and a Pentax rectangular hood say for the 28/3.5, which are fairly easy to find.

The DA 40mm works on film. I use mine on an MZ6 - lovely results, colours pop and rendering is very 3D when shot wide open.

None of these is likely to be very much. An ebay search would probably show £10-20 each, depending on mount (PK or PKA). The Ricoh lenses seem to have a cult following, especially inJapan, but this I think might be one of the more common ones.

Is the Tamron F a PKA mount - that might fetch £20.

Froeschle, I'm glad to say my ebay consolation prize arrived this weekend. A Carl Zeiss 25mm f/2.8 ZK Distagon T* for £380

I'm relieved you weren't in the market for one on those.
