For sale Pentax A 28mm f/2.0.
Very rare lens, fast and sharp with lots of contrast and pleasant bokeh.
Mechanically very good, focusing ring works nice and smooth, aperture works perfect, barrel in very good condition.
But...
lens has some fungus under the rear element (please see pics). Picture quality is not affected when using the lens on cropped sensor although lens should be disassembled and cleaned on some stage (or new owner can experiment a bit with UV light, I heard it sometimes works but don't have UV lamp to try).
Comes with both genuine lenscaps and quality UV filter (Hoya).
Looking for £265 and that includes insured shipping and PP fees.
Thanks for looking.

For sale Vivitar MC 28mm f/2.8 lens in very good condition and "A" mode on the aperture ring.
Lens has PK-A/R bayonet (can be used with pentax and ricoh cameras) and feels bit tight when attaching to Pentax body. This is caused by Ricoh pin although in this particular lens pin is small and retractable. I was planning to remove the pin myself but at the moment don't have suitable screwdriver.
More info about ricoh pins can be found here:

and here:

Looking for 50£ shipped by registered post and paypal'ed.
Sale includes Vivitar UV filter (not pictured).
Thanks for looking.

SMC Takumar 85mm f/1.8 for sale.
Very good condition, glass nice and clean, aperture looks and works perfect.
This is the 2nd version of that lens (6 elements, 6 groups, SMC) same design as K85mm I think. I've been using it with K5 via adapter (not included) with great results.
Comes with both original lenscaps.
Looking for 375 EUR including registered delivery and Paypal fees.





==============================================================
Also selling SMC Takumar 35mm f/2.
Same condition as 85mm. Excellent lens but need to slim my collection a bit and this one needs to go. Again, this is the 2nd version and AFAIK it shares optical design with K35mm f/2.
Looking for 175 EUR paypaled and delivered.
Feel free to ask any questions and thanks for looking.

Anyone interested in trade / PX? Can offer M42 SMC Takumars (35/2, 85/1.8, 300/4), looking for FA* lenses, 31 ltd (preferably Japanese) or 43 ltd (preferably Japanese). Of course I'll offer few of my lenses for one LTD / FA* and cash adjustment is possible.
All Takumars are in good / very good condition, with all original lenscaps.
I've got few more lenses (mostly primes) I can offer, some M42 and some PK, just PM what you're looking for and what you can offer.
PM if any questions, thanks.

Stuey - so am I still use my M42 lenses very often with my K5. Had K10 on some stage as well, what a great camera was that, maybe not the best in low light (CCD) but for landscape photography in fair weather I prefered K10 over K5.
