Sigma do a 70-200 f2.8 for a lot less money than the 60-250

Cheers Guys,
All points taken on board, about the sky thing Garth, always a problem because the bottom of the valley is quite ... well not dark more moody, and the skyline is always very bright in comparison and trying to get a balance is a nightmare.
No filters Harry, would you recommend I use them and what type?

Sorry Garth, I had Steve with me and picked up a crook friend from nr. Port Talbot to give him a day out and what with the 3 of us and our gear in the car there wouldn't have been enough room for a big fella like you (tall that is). I would like to go again when there is some green on the trees though if you are interested?

Steve

Took a trip in the sunshine to waterfall county with a fellow Pentaxian (newbie). Had a great day and managed to visit 7 in the same day.

Thanks Guys, even though it was only £8, it's the principle, and why should an ar5e like this get away with selling defective gear and not declaring it?

Cheers all, I'm annoyed more than anything that the tubes are broken, I took a punt as I hoped that they might have the contacts...but didn't. And if they didn't I wanted to put them straight back on and hope to get back what I paid. But I have a conscience and could not out of principle put these back on because they are broken and would not want to rip anyone off.
At least it was only £8.

This is what I bought:

HERE WE HAVE A SET OF PENTAX FITTING EXTENSION TUBES, No'S 1,2 AND 3 COMPLETE WITH END CAPS

Having a massive clear-out, due to Old Age and Health problems.

These items have been around sometime and are untested, but will possibly be OK, as I usually have dumped the rubbish!

Very low start price and no reserve, so they are on sale, from the first bid.

Please checkout my other listed items,and there will be many more in the weeks to follow.

All my projects must go!!!

No returns, I will post as economically as possible, but Signed For, as security. I do not try to make money out of P&P

Happy Bidding


My issue is two of the catches on the three tubes do not work and will not engage meaning any lens attached could potentially fall off. This was not mentioned in the description, oh, and the whole lot stinks of cigarette smoke.
How do I stand as far as returning them is concerned? I know the item states no return and untested but surely as it has not been described correctly they can be returned?

Love this set Mat, they are sharp where they need to be and yet still show motion blur which definitely adds drama to the shots. Great stuff.
