The time has come for a consolidation of my camera's and lenses. The people that I work closely with are all Canon, so in the interest of sanity (and compatibility) it is my Pentax gear that faces reduction. Payment and shipping info all the way at the bottom.
Available Now Pentax 43mm f1.9 $450 SOLD ($400)
Purchased in 2005, used extensively on my DS 2's and on the K10. Was my goto lens for several years before I fell in love with the 31mm. The lens is clean and in excellent condition. A few scuff marks on the flange, from the removal/attachment of the lens to various bodies.
Pentax 77mm f1.8 $650 - SOLD ($570)
Purchased in 2008, and used on and off over the last two years. Lens is in nearly new condition, clean and scratch free.
Pentax FA* 200mm 2.8 $1000 OBO - SOLD ($1000)
Purchased here, from Frank, in 2006. Its a great lens. Fantastic color and contrast. I've used it for portraits and sports and it has yet to fail me. I've even been using this one on the 40D with a K -> EOS adapter. Lens is clean, some minor surface dust. The fibers in the picture are from a lint free lens cloth (go figure) on the very recessed rear element. The black dots are interior dust. They could be cleaned out with a rocket blower and some care, but I've never had them show up on any shots.
One Shot per Day Blog Archive Saving the Day Dyne Dental 100mm f2.8 Macro $120 - SOLD
An eBay special, purchased in 2005. I have a Bokina in PK that I'm using adapted, but I am finding a need for a non-adapted macro lens for EOS. Thus one of the two K mount macro's has to go. This lens is in good shape. No scuffs. Focus is smooth (even if it takes a while to get it fully extended!). This is a A lens, which means it will link apertures with modern K bodies.
Kenko 1.5 AF Teleconveter $50 OBO - SOLD ($50)
Your basic TC. I can't really give a glowing review of this TC, it was only adequate for me, but since a lot of my work was hand-held, in less than the best light, others may have better luck than me.
Available 07/25
These two items are being used for one last wedding on 07/25, but if you are interested in either (both!) PM me and I'll let you know when they are ready. Once this last event is done I'll post them as a separate for sale with pics if they haven't been spoken for.
Pentax 31mm f1.8 $750 - Pending
This was the lens that replaced the 43mm as my go to lens. It just about lived on my K10 since I purchased it in early 2008. The lens is clean, and in great shape. No problems whatsoever with this guy.
Pentax K10D w/ external flash $300
The body itself. Purchased in 2006. Somewhere between 10 and 15k shots on the body. Its been serviced by Pentax in 2008 for a jammed SD card bay, and hasn't been used much since. Last major trip was to the bottom of the Grand Canyon in 2009. Last hurrah is as a backup for a wedding on 07/25. Camera works flawlessly, there are some minor bumps and dings from daily wear, but the camera itself is in great shape. Comes with a Pentax flash and two batteries.
PM me if you're interested in singles or clumps. I'm willing to take cash (bank check preferred, pay pal is ok but not great) I would really prefer to deal USA, and local pickup would be great. (If you're in the Montreal/Quebec area that is fine too) or trades. Looking specifically for Canon: 60 or 100mm macro and a 70-200 f2.8 L (Does not have to be IS). Might be able to temp me with anything f1.2 L.
Please send me any questions you might have. I'm willing to negotiate on the prices (within reason). If you pay with a bank check I'll waive shipping, pay pal there will be shipping charges.
