HD DA 55-300mm: $267 deal renewed!

HD DA 55-300mm: $267 deal renewed! · **1 Like**

An additional instant rebate on the popular 55-300mm lens was just posted today:

B&H: Pentax HD Pentax-DA 55-300mm f/4-5.8 ED WR Lens 22270 B&H Photo
Adorama: Pentax SMCP-DA 55mm-300mm f/4-5.8 ED WR Telephoto Zoom Lens 22270

I'm consolidating this deal so that both stores get exposure.

excellent deal! thanks, Adam!

VoiceOfReason · 07-30-2015, 05:55 PM

I wonder if it would be worth getting considering what I already have.

larryinlc · 07-31-2015, 06:40 PM

Dang, ordered too soon. 309.95 now at B&H

**seventysixersfan** · 08-01-2015, 03:54 AM

Price keeps dropping, wow!

danny09 · 08-07-2015, 09:05 AM

It is I only US $294 shipped as of today! What a smoking deal to complete your weather sealed kit up to 300 mm.

**seventysixersfan** · 08-07-2015, 09:31 AM

how low can it go? I wonder why it keeps dropping every week? $25 less in just 10 days? very tempted to upgrade my smc version to this WR HD one!

larryinlc · 08-07-2015, 10:11 AM

Pretty soon they will pay you to take one. Maybe throw in a K3 to sweeten the deal

danny09 · 08-07-2015, 10:46 AM

These are black Friday prices already. This is one of my surprisingly favorite lenses. Excellent bokeh wide open.

Don't feel bad. Ordered mine 2-3 weeks ago and paid $339. :/ The seller may have a price guarantee if within 30 days -- I know I'll checking with Adorama.

farhaddad · 08-09-2015, 03:25 PM

Back to $320 now

farhaddad · 08-09-2015, 04:34 PM

That is a different version without WR and with a different coating

Nah, it's the WR one. They must have sold a lot since the price jumped back up!

farhaddad · 08-10-2015, 05:29 AM

I know. That was a reply to someone who commented before me

about the lens being sold for a cheaper price. So I answered that it is an older version. S / he deleted the message since then.

The "Quote" button is a wonderful device; it allows us to see immediately what you are responding to (otherwise we have to guess, and some of us aren't very reliable at that).
