| Site Supporter Marketplace Reseller Posts: 876 | [SOLD] Pentax SMC-A 50mm f/1.2 Lens, ships worldwide PentaxForums.com Marketplace Listing Item for Sale Pentax SMC-A 50mm f/1.2 Lens, ships worldwide Asking Price $400 USD Item Description Ooof... time to bring out the big guns! I have a Pentax SMC-A (auto-aperture) 50mm f/1.2 lens for sale. Yes, 1.2. The functional condition is perfect. The aperture ring clicks properly at all stops, and the electronic information is transmitted in the A position. The body of the lens is in A/95% of new condition, having only very minor brassing in certain parts. The front glass is mint, I do not see any defects at all. The rear glass, however, has one small coating mark about 3mm square in size. It's not a scratch or gouge, but it just doesn't come off when properly cleaned. There are a couple of other very, very small marks on the rear glass too, overall it's about 85% original condition. Internally, there is NO fungus, haze, mold, or fog, but there are a few dust particles. I don't see any bubbles in the glass though. And the mount shows some minor wear, nothing out of the ordinary. It comes with a scratched up original Pentax front lens cap, a generic rear one, and a 52mm uv filter to keep the front glass clean and scratch-free. I can only provide crummy cell phone pictures to interested buyers at the moment, so PM me if you'd like to see them. I don't have my camera with me right now. Believe me, I'd like to upload pictures because it looks even better than my description. You're just going to have to trust me and my record here, and know that if it's not as described (and no new damage has been added to it, of course), I'll gladly take it back. PM me if interested, thanks! Are you the original owner of the item being sold? No Are you selling or trading this item? Selling Item Condition Used Excellent Item Location United States Shipping Charge $10 USA, $30 Canada, $45 Worldwide Shipping Services USPS Only, no carrier fees for international shipments like with UPS/FedEx Shipping Destinations Worldwide Accepted Payment Types PayPal Check/Money Order Other (Elaborate) Return Policy/Additional Details Returns accepted if a problem is pointed out within 24 hours of receipt and is not the result of shipping damage nor mishandling. Please send me a private message if interested in the item! Last edited by wallyb; 10-22-2009 at 12:14 PM. Reason: Only significant mark is 3mm square in size, not 1mm. Forgot how big (small) a mm was! |

| Site Supporter Marketplace Reseller Posts: 876 | Bumping, and hoping to close a sale soon... need a PM back from a member. I should have my new K-x early next week to show some pictures, if it's still around by then (doubtful). |

| Site Supporter Marketplace Reseller Posts: 876 | Here are pictures of the actual lens. As you can see on the rear, they are just very light rub marks, more like a "smudge". They are not scratches, and definitely not fungus/mold/anything else. Just very minor losses of coating. You can also see that the front is impeccable.

All PMs read or replied, I'll post some sample shots from this lens in a little bit. |

| Site Supporter Marketplace Reseller Posts: 876 | A few boring shots, all at f/1.2, at different ISO speeds. The bokeh really does impress on this lens:  Click on the image to view it in a larger size  Click on the image to view it in a larger size  Click on the image to view it in a larger size |
