I think people might be holding out for the Dixons tax free deal (if they are flying anywhere).

Or give the full cost including paypal charges and offer a discount for the ease of non-paypal transactions (say around 3.5% :wink

Gotta say that Anvh seems to have the best plan. There will be a fair few k20s floating around second hand. Pick one up and wait for the K7 reviews/the price to drop.

Hi there.

Picked up a grab bag recently with some lenses and camera kit. Surplus to requirements are a Pentax SFX, Chinon pro-1090C flash unit, Chinon 75-200mm 4-4.8 lens, and Sigma 28-70mm 3.5-4.5 lens. Also an 80s style bag (which I need to give a bit of a clean).

The camera, lenses and flash are all in good working order although the Chinon lens look a bit worn on the outside (well loved? worn? I'll let you choose the description). Optically they are working fine though (tested on my DSLR) with no scratches or signs of dust or fungus. Flash works fine (also tested with my DLSR).

I have tested the camera as far as I can without getting a film developed. If you want me to check anything on your behalf then let me know.

Just wondering if anyone is interested in any of the kit (all or part). Any offers welcome.

Can arrange for delivery or collection in central London.

Otherwise these will make interesting ornaments!

Cheers,

J

Ha! Wouldn't be looking for a fortune but it would be a shame to let it sit around if someone would want to use it.

Do you mind not moving this to classifieds yet? I'll have a better look at the stuff and put up a new post with details, flash model etc. Don't want to guess at anything or mislead anyone. Probably worth me taking some pictures to show the condition too. You can delete this post if you don't want it cluttering up the film threads.

Cheers,

J

Hey there people.

I'm a recent SLR purchaser (digital) and have been looking at picking up some more lenses (for macro and preferably a prime or two).

I have just bought an old Pentax SFX kit (for the lenses) and I'm wondering if anyone will want the rest of the equipment that came with it. The body came with a flash and there are two lenses left of the kit (Sigma 28-70 and Chinon 75-200 - so not top class stuff). None of it is in tip-top condition (well-loved? worn? You can choose the description) but seems to be fine optically.

I'm just wondering if it is worth me going to the trouble of checking it is working 100% and putting it in the classifieds section or whether I should keep it as an attractive paperweight.

Any thoughts?

Cheers,

J
