Monk

I have all sorts of things to clear out. I think I had the Kenko version, which is basically the same. I'll dig it out

Thanks Stuey.

Here are a couple of threads about this lens:

PM sent. I have a K2 or Super A that might be of interest.

Apologies, no Ricoh pin, I mixed this up with another lens.

Open to reasonable offers if anyone is interested.

These are all handheld, with an FA 50/1.4 and converter, all at around life size except the tin, with camera's pop up flash. Not great quality but hopefully shows what the lens can do.

Barbarosa is first in line having sent a pm, Monk is second if things fall through.

Milamber, thanks. I will post some photos later taken with a 50 to demonstrate.

Surplus to requirements after picking up a couple of dedicated macro lenses. Simialr to the Telepus converter I had, this is in slightly better condition, with box, case, instructions and front and rear caps.

The converter is in excellent condition: 7 element construction, smooth zoom, clean lens surfaces and lovely purple coating. No scratches or fungus. The lens can be used as a normal 2x converter as well as a macro unit, with magnification or aroun 1/4 to 1x life size. Best results with 50mm lenses and longer.

PKA mount allows use with film and digital bodies in all exposure modes. The mount does have a Ricoh pin but it is recessed no problems on my K7 or istDS.

£48 posted rmsd in UK. £5 more worldwide.

Another lens surplus to requirements. Works well, almost new looking other than some wear to the barrel. Boxed, with front and rear caps and dedicated hood.

With aperture ring, so fine for film and digital bodies.


Clean lens surfaces, no fungus or scratches, smooth focus (Screw drive) and clean, snappy aperture. Zoom works fine, as do the lens mount and filter thread which are in good condition. AF is fine, not much hunting, and build quality is good.

£40 shipped in the UK. £5 more worldwide.
