I bought k200d with 18-55mm 4 years ago. This would be nice upgrade :)
@mrNewt - agree ;-)
@Or any of wifi spots via your mobile? But I got your point.
GL to everyone tomorrow!
@tessfully - Have one of you enter using a friend's computer or using work computer ;).
Very Nice Lens, and I did enter the draw! But, I have a problem with the rules of the comp.
Two of us live under the same I.P. address. We are both hard core pentax users and forum members. But with the I.P. restricted to only one entry, one of us is out in the cold!
Is there a way around that?
thanks!
Strong, stylish and SHORT :) - it is ideal for my Pentax K-01! Thank Red River Paper for help and this chance!
After studying the lens I can just say... I WANT IT SOOOO MUCH. ;-)
But GL to everyone! As it will definitely make happy anyone of us :-D
Thank you for this chance to get a fine new lens for my Pentax K-5!
I don't have a Pentax DSLR *yet* but seeing as I now have my mind (and heart) set on Pentax, this would be a great thing to win!
Good luck everyone!
It sure would be nice to add this to my photography toolbox!
Looks nice. Like everyone else, I'm hoping to be the winner. :)
I badly want this :( I really want to have my first prime and this is what I'm dreaming of for the past months. Hope I get this. This would be a great birthday gift for me and a Christmas gift as well :D.
I need this lens cos I'm broke and it will help to calm my LBA dt's....
This lens is exactly what I am looking to add to my kit! Couldn't timing of this give-away be any better!
Once I choosed for Vivitar, is not allways the best I had. I now keep my eyes only at Pentax, having almost 30 lenses and six camera’s. When equal to 50mm f1.7 this 50mm lens can do a nice job, is very sharp, transparant and perfect colourrendering and no CA, as seen by me. But remember, giving name and email address is a source to receive mail, wanted or unwanted.
I need this for indoor volleyball!
This lens would be the perfect fit for a step-up camera!
My birthday on 28th and I'm located in Nord Africa, will be right on time!
Sorry JPOWERSRRT, I found ist too stress for you... ;-D
It would be a nice upgrade from my SMC Pentax-A 50mm F2 lens that I've had for years and still works great.
My birthday is on the 11th and that would make for a great gift - jack
Cool lens...
This looks great!
I wish I would stick to original lenses instead of those SIGMA which I have now..
Can this compare with A-50mm F/1.7 ?
I like this lens, fast and AF, this is the best lens beside mine, "Pentax smc M-1.7"
Just what I need for better pics.
This will fit well in my K10
What a great giveaway! Would love to have this lens!
A portrait/low light lens is what I need right now ... I want it so much!!!
Entered! Thanks!
I hope I could win it!! I don´t have a 50mm lens! ^_^
An extra prime lens 50mm is a plus with two pentax bodies.
win
I've already got the FA 50mm 1.4, but hey, why not enter!
Very nice! Thanks a lot Red River Paper and PentaxForums, that is very cool. and for DA 50, it is a very good lens.
This would be a great lens for the new K-5 I want to purchase to replace my older Pentax.
Nice thanks for the raffle!
Thanks Red River papers--I use your papers to print the images I take with my K-5. with this lens the images would be really great.
this would be lovely. I am just about to get a k-5 and would love this lense.
I contacted Red River and Drew told me the free shipping discount is good 'til 11-20-12. Nice guy, good sense of humor.
Very nice! Was just looking this lens up yesterday. Would go nicely on my white K-01.
Now that's so cool! Thanks Red River Paper and PentaxForums!
This will be nice ... thanks! :)

contacted via e-mail on October 6, 2012? is that some error right there?
Nice of them to offer this giveaway.
However, the free shipping discount expires 10-20-12. I hope they're planning to extend that, as I don't have access to a time machine. ;)
