Wee bump, will consider offers, would rather sell to an enthusiast on the forum than through eBay.

Reluctantly changed brands at the weekend, therefore my full current Pentax kit has to go to support my recent purchases. I am uploading images at the moment, they will be able to view here.

1) Pentax K20D body, shutter count 24,817.
I am the second owner of this body, I bought it September 2010 through this forum. This camera was purchased new in Germany and posted to me from Germany, this was bought as a second body by the owner who had moved to Germany to study. As such, I got the user English user manual and UK battery charger from his other K20D.
Original purchase date 14/11/2008 - I have and will provide receipt. The body was serviced by a Pentax dealer on 23/06/2010, again I have the paperwork for this. The camera comes with everything as it did when new, battery, strap, cables, manual, serial number card etc, CD's, charger, I have also bought a new X sync cover and hotshoe cover. Additionally, I will include one further third party battery and charger (12v car type) and a Pentax eyepiece cover. All will be packed in original bow which is in excellent condition. The body is in excellent condition, very minor scratches on the rear screen but these cannot be seen when powered on.
Asking for £300 plus £20 RMSD
2) Pentax AF-540 FGZ Flash
This flash is in mint conditoin, no scratches or stress marks anywhere. Comes in original box and case, also including a flash stand and stofen type diffuser
Asking for £240 plus £10 RMSD
3) Tamron SP AF 17-50mm F2.8 Di II A16P
Great lens, I have bought same lens for my Nikon.
Purchased new by me on 18/01/2011 from Park Cameras, original purchase receipt included (£334.9. I did a lot of price comparisons when buying this lens, Parks were not the cheapest but were the cheapest reputable company that were actually holding stock ! Lens, box, everything mint.
Asking for £250 plus £10 RMSD
4) HOYA Pro1 Digital UV Filter 67mm
Fitted to my Tamron lens from new (18/01/2011), very high quality filter, no scratches or marks.
Asking for £30 including postage, £20 if purchased with Tamron.
5) Pentax DA 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 WR
Purchase new OEM from SRS September 2010 to go with my K20D, not had much use after buying the Tamron, great condition, no marks or scratches. Comes with original hood, serial number card and paperwork. No box but will be well packaged. I will also chuck in my (lol) screw in petal hood welding glass 13 stop filter and exposure calculation chart. Fits the 52mm thread and suprisingly good once the white balance has been set. Anyway, it's a freeby with this lens
Asking for £50 plus £10 RMSD
6) Pentax DA L 50-200mm F4 - 5.6 ED
This was included in the twin lens kit I got with my Pentax Km, circa June 2009. Did not get hood with this but I have fitted a three stage rubber hood that is good for shooting through glass (I used this lens primarily for zoo photography). Good clean lens, no scratches on the optics. No box but serial card and paperwork. Again will be welll packaged
Asking for £65 plus £10 RMSD
7) Coiled 3 metre off camera flah TTL cable - £15 including postage
Two original D-LI50 batteries for K10D/K20D, both in original boxes with plastic caps etc - £15 each including postage.
9) TOKO 67mm circular polarizer filter, in original case and box. Very old but great condition and good quality - £10 including postage
10) Hoya 52mm UV filter, two years old in original box - £7.50 including postage
11) Hoya 52mm circular polarizer filter, two years old in original box - £15 including postage
12) Pentax IR remote, pen in picture just to show scale of this tiny wee remote - £13 including delivery.

Bit of a tangent, but when using the focus chart, I had to dial in +12 to get the desired result, but ...
After spending hours doing the above, trying a "real" image on a stationary object, I changed this back down to +4

Are they really front and back focusing or is it our perception more than anything ?

At least my £33 experiment (£27 for triggers, £6 for studio cable)has hopefully stopped others from getting them.

I have tried to get a price from a chinese contact for a MOQ order of Pixel Soldiers, I believe MOQ is 48. Will see what the landed price is, if good then I might see if anyone wants to so a group buy ...
