Ricoh lens (No, not the pin)

**K(s)evin** · 05-07-2012, 03:11 PM

I was at a local camera collectors show yesterday and picked up a MINT Ricoh Rikenon P 28-100 f/4 Macro lens with original case and manual.

I checked the reviews. It is listed, but no one has reviewed it yet. (Maybe I'll be the first!)

But, for now, does anyone know anything about it?

Thanks!

I have a copy that I picked up from Goodwill online. Mine came to me a very well-used lens that has too much play in it for me to evaluate fairly. It seems decent but quite heavy; I preferred their 35-135P but that was a far less sloppy lens, felt like new. My current fave is their XR 70-150, which like yours came in mint condition with a nice case. Other than flare from the old coatings these are very nice bargain lenses.. not to mention the prestige from owning Ricoh/Pentax gear in a former era

A family portrait from a year or more ago.

today's lineup!
