Item Description
I'm selling these lenses because I want to get a Tamron 70-200 F2.8, and these lenses are in the same range so I won't need them.

Pentax M50 F1.7 - $60 with shipping included - SOLD
Pentax FA 28-105 F3.2-4.5 - SOLD


Pentax F 80-200 F4.7-5.6 - $50 with shipping included - SOLD
Pentax-F 80-200mm F4.7-5.6 Reviews - F Zoom Lenses - Pentax Lens Reviews & Complete Lens Database
This lens is a good medium telephoto, with great IQ at this price range. I absolutely love this lens because it's an internal zoom. Unfortunately, I needed 300mm and my FA100-300 replaces this, so I'm selling this.

Condition: This lens is in great condition. I don't believe there are any markings on the body, and I have the original box and paperworks with this. The lens is clear of fungus, and has minimal dust. The zoom ring feels very nice, and the aperture ring is quite good. The focusing ring is a little flimsy to the feel, but that's part of the plastic build of this lens. This lens will come in the original box with lens cap and rear cap.

Updated: I will include a nice screw in telephoto metal hood.

This lens is a good longer telephoto, often rated above the Tamron and Sigma 70-300s. It's IQ may not be on par with the DA 50-300, but at half the cost (or sometimes a third), it's worth it's value. I really like this lens for its low weight while being a 300mm. The lens zoom creeps a lot, however the previous owner provided a very nice black rubber band around the zoom ring that completely stops zoom creep. It almost looks like it's part of the lens. Using it prevents the use of the aperture ring, but that really isn't an issue. The aperture ring is pretty snappy (no oil on the blades) regardless. The focus throw is about 200-210 degrees, so it's not the best for manual focusing, but you can do it (I use it for taking moon shots). The focus ring is smooth, very smooth. The body has some scratches here and there, but no dents or damage. The glasses are clean and without fungus. This lens will come with a lens cap and rear cap, as well as a clip on hood that I have bought for the lens.

The hood in the album is not the clip on hood.

If anyone is interested in multiple lenses, just let me know and I can discount them as the shipping would be less together. I will almost always ship within a day of receiving payment, and if not I'll let you know why. Again, if you receive the lens and aren't satisfied, let me know and I'll refund the cost of the lens. Please review all the information I have set forward before committing to purchase. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.

I bought the FA 28-105. Just want to give this post a bump, because JinDesu was very generous and honest in working out a glitch with the lens. A very good person with which to do business. Thanks.

I don't know what the shipping to Canada is, but if you provide me your location, I can check the shipping and let you know whether or not I can eat it.
