For Sale - Sold: SMC Pentax-A* 645 600mm f/5.6 ED (IF) lens - final price drop - $3000

fliegenfischer · 06-29-2012, 09:20 PM

I am dropping the price for this lens by an additional $200, to $3599.00

My next move will be to place the lens on eBay for open auction, in about a week.

So, if anyone wants to purchase or make an offer I can't refuse, now is the time.

Do you need to file for commercial tags for that?

Also: This+Pentax Q Via 645->K->Q

Nope, don't need commercial tags - just a hefty tripod.

Not sure what you mean by second line, but if it is a question, yes, I assume you could piggyback a K to Q adapter on a 645 to K adapter, but I haven't a clue if it would work mechanically (i.e., operate the aperture), or even focus on the sensor plane. I leave that to those more experienced in how adapters work. While I do own a 645 to K adapter, I do not own a Pentax Q, and certainly not a K to Q adapter, so I can't try it out.

I can also highly recommend this beauty - sample pics of my copy can be found in my gallery, in fact most shots there were taken with this lens with and w/o converters. I only use it on a K-5 and due to the high quality you can usually shoot wide open most of the time.

$3599, or make an offer. Moving to eBay auction soon.

Okay. I have decided to make one last final price drop to $3000, which will be the "buy it now" price when I move the lens to eBay for open auction.
