Post which lens you just bought (and still didn´t arrive)

Cabessius · 07-29-2018, 02:38 PM

Did you just click the "Buy it now" button? Just won an auction?
While you patiently wait for your lens to be delivered, tell us which model it is, so users who already own it can comment and (mainly) post pictures taken with it so you will know what to expect.

I will begin, I´m actually waiting for 3 lenses:

SMC Pentax 50mm 1:1.2
Auto Takumar 105mm f/2.8
Auto Takumar 135mm f/3.5

FA 24mm F2 AL IF, FA* 85mm F1.4 IF and DA* 300mm F4 ED IF, the FA lenses bought on ebay and the 300 bought new, my friend is bringing them from France in November as the import TAX here is 100 percent % and the 300 is a couple of hundred euros cheaper there.

Waiting on pentax smc 67 200mm f4.

Cant wait!

The DFA 28-105 should arrive on Tuesday, along with a used K-1. If the combo doesn't suffer from shutter shock, I'll keep it for standard zoom use.

SMC Takumar 85mm f1.8

Looking forward to putting it on my K-1, and K3II

I feel like a Heinz Ketchup commercial. Anticipation (sing it, of course!)

How many of us remember that add campaign, singing "anticipation" while getting the ketchup out?

Almost as good as unboxing LBA

Mine should be on my desk in the morning. I have a super busy week ahead, then 6 days at The Broadmoor in Colorado (half-work, half-play) so I won’t get to really test it out on a full day for two weeks.

TAKUMAR (BAYONET) 1:2.5 135mm
I hope it's a keeper.
