i think if i remeber right with what chris said the sigma lens 50/500 is going up in april from £899 to £1099
That's a shame , it is not worth £1100 to me let alone any higher than that . I'll stick with my Fujis if that's the case!vrapan wrote:

One at a time Neil one at a time , I have never had the pleasure of a DA* 300 but I sold a DA* 200 a while back, lovely lens too but I think the one I will miss the most is the 50-135.
It really is a near faultless zoom really - maybe you can complain about slowish AF but that is on a K-5 chances are on something newer/more modern that won't be as much of an issue.
Anyway this is all my Pentax gear gone thanks Andrew and happy shooting!

Quick pics, anyone wants any more please let me know, a bit dark in the house but I had a second check and not even the hoods have marks as I thought (my 10-20 had).
Many thanks everybody.

I will be getting some pics for you all shortly and upload / email them.
Conqueror: It is perfect, smooth zoom and focus ring, has taken about 700-800 pics from new, it was never very fast to AF on my K5 but that might change with one of the newer bodies I don't know. However mechanically it is indistinguishable from new.

Boxed and in great condition Pentax zoom lens. Both have the pouches/boxes/hoods and original front and rear caps.
The 50-135 was bought from SRS in Watford just over 3 years ago and the 16-50 from here around the same time. They both are in perfect working and cosmetic condition with no marks on the glass or body. There are a couple of marks on the hood of the 16-50 but they are on the outside of the hood and have no consequence on the performance of the hood/lens.
I will do pictures shortly but checking if there is any interest for them.
The price for the 16-50 is £415 including shipping.
The price for the 50-135 is £520 including shipping. Both are firm.
I am selling them only because I have decided to move to mirror-less - had hold on to them hoping Pentax will but there we are years and years on and still no chance for that to happen so sadly I have to let the system go.

Doese anyone know if the grips are extra in the Uk . I do not see additional prices for these. I ask because someone somewhere stated. They were additional costs in the Uk .
Also SRS and Park cameras have the KP with. A :FIVE YEAR WARRANTY."
This has to be worth something around The £200 mark ( guese) .

BTW Stu thx for the message
