...just in time for the Holidays! (Well, too late for Hanukkah.)

Here's what I have, these are going up on eBay this weekend but I wanted to offer them here first:

SMC Pentax-A* 300/4 - SOLD!

Excellent condition, looks like it was babied from new, I personally know the original and only other owner and can refer you if you have questions. The glass is without a mark, aperture blades are perfect. There are a few normal usage scuffs on the built-in hood, but nothing really of note. Includes front and rear Pentax caps.

SMC Pentax-FA 50/1.4 - SOLD!

Bought used from a camera store several years ago. This lens is also in excellent condition. Glass is clean and clear, aperture blades are perfect. This is an auto-focus lens. Includes appropriate front and rear Pentax caps.

SMC Pentax-A 24/2.8 - SOLD!

Bought used from a camera store about a year ago, I'm only selling this gem because I subsequently bought the FA* 24/2 and don't give this lens the use it deserves. Small and compact, and virtually free from CA and PF. Glass is in great condition, aperture blades are perfect. A great sharp lens!

The Super-Takumars:
(These are all M42 mount lenses that can be used with the K-mount digital cameras via a simple adapter. But you probably already know that.)

Super-Takumar 35/2 - SOLD!

Keh has one of these currently in stock for $235, mine is in equivalent condition. This is the compact 49mm filter thread version of the lens. Optics are clean and clear, aperture blades are perfect. It includes the real Pentax front and rear caps.

Super-Takumar 35/3.5 - No longer for sale...

Removed from sale.

Super-Takumar 50/1.4 - No longer for sale...

Removed from sale.

Super-Takumar 105/2.8 - SOLD!

This is probably the sharpest lens that I'm selling. I upgraded to the Super-Multi-Coated version of the lens, so I'm letting the Super-Takumar go on to a better home. Excellent condition, only minor signs of use and glass/aperture blades in excellent condition. Comes with authentic Pentax front and rear caps.

Super-Takumar 150/4 - No longer for sale...

Removed from sale.

Odds & Ends

Helios 44M-4 58mm f/2 lens - SOLD!

This lens is great, I just don't use it. Some signs of use but still in excellent condition. Includes original front and rear caps (the front cap is funky but works perfectly.)

Sears TLS film camera + Sears 55mm f/1.4 lens - Moved to other forum...

I'm offering this for sale elsewhere, it probably isn't well-known here.

Thanks everyone for the interest and the quick sales.

Thanks everyone for the interest so far.

No hits so far on the Super-Takumar lenses?!? What are you people smoking?! These are great, compact, solid lenses.

Just an FYI, send PMs to all the Super-Takumar users out there (Mike Cash, et. al.) and ask them how good these are - don't just take my word for it.

Sorry for not mentioning - it is M42 mount. Not only that, but it does not have an Auto/Manual switch for the aperture stop-down, you would need to use a modified adapter to use it successfully. (Or you could use it on an M42 camera, of course!)
