Item Description
Pentax SMC A 50/1.2 in excellent working order.

I've had this for two years and have loved it, but haven't used it much lately. It's in excellent shape, except the front filter ring which has a lot of paint loss and tiny dings. No problem at all using a filter or a screw in hood though. Other than that, there's just a slight amount of brassing on the aperture ring.

It creates images like nothing else I've ever used. Very useable wide open, but difficult to nail focus. Stopped down, it has fantastic bokeh and sharpness is beyond belief.

The glass is free of scratches, but has a fair amount of fine dust inside, which is quite common in older lenses. It has no effect on IQ and can't be seen casually, but is evident when looking through with a flashlight.

Comes with front and rear caps (not original) and original hood.
