Help! (LBA-ed?)

Dear all,

I initially bought Pentax K-x because i want to be different and because its white. later on, i bought M 50mm f1.7 lens that come with MX as its rear cap. starting from that day i am addicted to 'collecting' Pentax-M lenses...

2 years and 14 lenses later, i'm still short M 20mm f4, 120mm f2.8 and maybe 300mm. i have an A 20mm f2.8 already but it is an ~~error~~.. another collection

so, if you want to help me and have the lens i listed and want to sell it, please PM me.

p/s: i think the gap between 50mm to 85mm is quite far. do Pentax have a prime lens in between that focal as a substitute?

Many thanks

You should post some threads in the wanted items section for the lenses you're interested in. People aren't allowed to sell outside of the marketplace anyway.

There's nothing manual between those two FL's, but Pentax does have the FA 77mm limited.

In the old days the rule of thumb was to have lenses 2X or 1/2 as long as the next one, so 85 in fact already in the middle.
