Win a Pentax Limited Lens: Raffle Now Live!

Well, I suspected I'd regret selling my FA 20-35...and I do. I miss it's compact size, light weight, color, contrast -- everything about it, really.

While I appreciate its replacement, the DA 16-45, I don't find myself using the extra width all that often.

Anyone have a good copy to send my way for a reasonable price?

Same experience...sold my 20-35 a couple years ago here on the forum and have regretted it since. Just bought a used copy from Adorama this week...missing the polarizer window cover which wasn't mentioned in their listing--kinda sleezy, but that little honey of a lens has outstanding image quality and is worth seeking.
Glad I beat you to the adorama lens and wish you success in finding another...it's worth seeking!

I have one I'm willing to sell. It's an excellent copy of the lens. Let me know by PM if you're interested and what you consider a reasonable price.
