Only needed a couple of these, but was cheaper to order a whole set ... 10.02 € delivered via Amazon last week.

I had wanted one of these for quite a while and one showed up on the Le Bon Coin French site. It was a B&M camera store announcement in the north, so I called to get some info. All seemed good and I had been in this store about 2 years ago ... plus a Pentax buddy buys a lot of his gear there and recommends them.

So, for 350€ delivered and in very good shape just as described ... just a bit of "rub" brassing to the mount knob ... testing now and shoots great so far. A Tamron SP 70-200/2.8 Di, thus FF for the K-1 ... arrived this morning.

after two days of zilch, a VERY good car boot haul

Minolta AF 50mm 1.7 - clean but won't stop down, but should still sell at a good price anyway.
Panagor zoom slide duplicator
Nice clean Soligor 135/2.8 m42 - unbelievably, I just discovered that the lens cap on it is a K cap with a genuine Pentax K-m42 adapter ring in it! Probably worth more than the lens!
Vivitar 100mm f2.8 macro lens for Minolta AF - clean and working
Sigma 28-80 3.5-5.6 AF for Nikon - clean and working
Tamron Tele-Macro 28-70 with Nikon AI mount - clean and working
Pentax Spotmatic SP with Super-Takumar 50/1.8 - lens is clean and working, body has an intermittent mirror fault and I haven't put batteries in to test the meter yet.
An adapter eyepiece for using an M42 lens as a telescope
Seven polarising filters in various sizes

also a very nice graphics calculator.

Total spend was £62, and ought to be pretty profitable

Very cool. I could use a set like that, but this one skips the 40.5mm filter size of my Samsung NX100's 20-50mm kit lens.

nice to see a repetition of the original SMU photo style

two lenses flanking the now familiar [ at least to some of us ] SMU

as I recall, on the first appearance someone, not I, posted they would take the objects in the middle

and the SMU was born

that was quite a few posts ago
