Item Description
SMC Pentax-A 1:1.4 50mm lens in excellent optical and functional condition, fair cosmetic condition. Comes with generic caps.
After a recent CLA by the famed Eric Hendrickson, the barrel is tight and the focusing is as smooth and well-damped as it is on my favorite K-series lenses. I bought the lens used, and it came with a UV filter on it. From the condition of the front element I'd guess the filter had always been there, but I don't know for sure.
The ring with the depth-of-field scale has significant paint loss. It doesn't look roughly handled; my guess is that this ring is unusually prone to paint loss. Other than that the cosmetics are good, with the usual range of slight wear marks.
Due to manic LBA I now have four different versions of the Pentax 50/1.4, and since acquiring the FA version this lens has been sitting unused. Including the CLA the price is less than I spent, but this lens deserves to be used so I am selling. Despite the cosmetics being a little sub-par, given the CLA and quality of the optics and mechanics I think it is a very fair price
, so at this time I will not consider lower offers.
