Win a Pentax Limited Lens: Raffle Now Live!

Bazwell · 11-05-2011, 10:47 AM

I need to reduce my Pentax collection because I’m juggling three systems and these lenses don’t get used enough to justify keeping them. I am the original owner of all these except the A* 300, which was purchased in this marketplace. Shipping costs are not included in asking prices but will average $20-25 for US destinations and $15-20 in Canada for tracked shipping by Canada Post, depending on the weight of the lens. Payment by Paypal only please.

Da 35 f2.8 Macro. Excellent condition including caps, bag, box, manual. One slight wear mark (less than one mm; see photo) on front of lens barrel, only visible in certain light. A couple of other smaller scuffs. Lens cap has three small nicks on the edge. Glass is perfectly clear and everything works as it should. $430. SOLD

D-FA 100 Macro f2.8. Not the “WR” version but has the same optics. Like new condition including hood, caps, bag, box, manual. $450.

DA* 50-135 F2.8. The legendary Pentax zoom. In excellent condition including original caps, pouch, hood and box. About a year after I bought it, it developed SDM problems (slow, sticking focus), but Pentax replaced the focus motor in September 2010 and the SDM has worked fine since then. Aside from this motor replacement, the lens is LNIB. No signs of wear. $680. SOLD

A* 300mm F4. Incredibly compact lens with great sharpness. In fair condition with original caps and pouch. The glass is immaculate. Some light wear on barrel and lens hood; one scratch on hood (1" - see photo), light scuffs on lens cap and some wear on focus ring. Aperture blades dry and snappy with no signs of wear. The focus is fairly smooth but there is a sound of slight friction when focus ring is moved. I think it’s the focus ring touching the aperture ring. Not very noticeable in normal use but it’s there if you listen. $475.

Sorry about the smorgasbord of white balances in the photos.... I haven't mastered WB in Lightroom yet..

I will consider shipping outside north America, but unfortunately the shipping costs are very expensive for tracked shipping. Average cost to Asia is $80 to $95. Sorry but I won't ship without a tracking number. Please PM me if you're interested.

Thank you for replying. I don't think I can afford the lens plus its shipping. Thanks anyway.
