Saw that and had a smile for you.

if it gets cold and wet here, like the weatherman says, I'll probably post that A400 for sale, too...

I bought it already molested. Now I have a potent lens, so this one goes. Operates in Av Mode like any m42 lens. To a member.

So, here's one for the latest thing you sold/got rid of. . . .

well, the OP didn't limit this to camera equipment specifically so here is my latest de-acquisition

about 3 weeks ago, I lost a dear friend

a 2002 Chevy Suburban 1500 LT with only 191,000 + miles

bumps, bruises, rust and trashed interior but plenty of good miles left for a farmer or rancher

but we did get a 2016 GMC Acadia Denali with 35,000 + miles in an attempt to replace it

I let go a K20D with a Tamron 90mm f/2.8 to a Gent who
has a workshop for People dealing with Mental issues
Good cause

cheers

Yesterday took some unwanted stuff - a Top Gear board game that I bought cheap as a possible Christmas present about two weeks before Jeremy Clarkson got fired, and never got round to giving, a Pentax AF 35mm camera (forget the model number, it wasn't a particularly good one), and three DVDs - to a free swap meet organized by Freegle, which is an organization similar to Freecycle. Went back later in day with the vouchers I was given for them, and got a saucepan, a can of blackboard paint (very good for painting the inside of extension tubes etc. to reduce reflections), a book, and two other DVDs I actually wanted. They're doing this again at the end of next month, I shall have to try to find more items I don't want and don't want to try selling.

I gave away another camera bag this week.
My coworker will re-purpose it as a small laptop bag.

That's four bags in the last couple weeks.
All were larger than I would ever use.

I’ve been doing that with Domke Messenger bags with padded full-width inserts that somebody sent me.

Sold the silver KP to a member who approached me with an offer. Selling all the APSc gear.

**monochrome** · 04-09-2018, 10:14 AM - **2 Likes**

New In Box / New Old Stock Q / 02 kit. Everything is still in the original bags.

This was bought at the end of production and held for posterity. I’ll never use it, so a member* who wants it will get it.

* He claims it is for his 8 year old daughter

My K-50 and the kit lenses, as well as memory cards, a cleaning kit and two extra batteries to a fellow forum member. As I get closer to the initial 1K on my new KP, I am hopeful that there is no need for either my manufacturer's warrantee or the extended warrantee I purchased with it. I hope that the forum member enjoys what was my K-50 as much as I did.

My Sigma 150-500 DG OS HSM has gone, on "evilbay", to a lady in Russia because she said they are "unobtainable" there - even though I made it clear to her that I would only ship to UK locations, and so she has arranged for a UK-based shipping company to get it to her (and she has taken responsibility for getting it to her - in writing!). That could be said to be "something" heading for Russia that their "politicos" might not want

Sold my prized Pentax FA* 24mm . Readying up some more lenses next. I need something that can autofocus while recording video. For the life of me I don’t want a Sony, but it’s looking like one of the better options.

What is the problem in shipping from UK to Russia? I regularly ship there from USA with no problems. Is there something that we should be aware of?
