SMC-K 135 f2.5, F 50 f1.7, [FA Ltd's 31 & 77 Sold] & PK-A Vivitar 2x Macro TC

Up for sale are my prized lenses that I have been trying to hold on to, but since money is tight, I need to let them go.
For now I would like to sell within Europe first and if there is no interest, I will open it up to worldwide.




1. SMC K 135mm, f/2.5 $200 + actual shipping.
This lens deserves every bit of praise that it gets. This is not the Tak, but the Pentax K version. It's sharp, bright and utterly an amazing lens. I bought it on the forum and I patiently waited over 2 years to find this lens, it's in excellent condition. It has it's original front cap and a generic rear one. The lens has a little dust, but nothing that will affect your photos.








2. SMC F 50mm, f/1.7 Withdrawn
I bought this also on the forum as NOS. I left the box back at my mother's home when I came to visit her. I will send it to the new owner when I get back stateside. This lens is in excellent condition as well, some light usage marks on the plastic barrel. Some dust is visible in the distance scale window. The filter thread is in perfect condition, not broken or cracked. This lens takes beautiful portraits wide open and everyone that sees the output of this lens raves about the photos taken with it. Some small specks of dust are in the lens interior. I feel that this lens is sharper than my SMC M 50mm f/1.4 at 1.7. This is one of the fastest focusing lenses that I have ever had. It was fast even on my K100D Super, and that camera was glacial at times compared to my Kr.








3. Silver MIJ FA 31mm, f/1.8 $975 + actual shipping. [SOLD to DonThomaso]
I bought it from the Polish auction site Allegro.pl and I believe I am the second owner. I love this lens and thought I would never get to own it. The lens is in excellent condition with a few dust specs inside. The original metal front cap is a little scuffed from the original owner. I have instead on it a plastic aftermarket lens cap. This lens is everything that I dreamed of, I sold my DA 35 Macro to get this lens! I wanted specifically for it to be Silver and MIJ to match my FA 77 Ltd. I have all the original packaging. This lens has spent the most time mounted to my Kr since receiving it. I love the colors, bokeh, and sharpness of the lens and yes it sure does have pixie dust, lots of it in fact.










4. Silver MIJ FA 77mm, f/1.8 $715 + actual shipping. EDIT: SOLD to Alvaro!.
I bought this lens on the forum as well and it was the first FA Ltd that I purchased. This lens is stunning. The lens is in excellent condition, and was serviced by Eric about 2 years ago when the lens stopped focusing. It's worked perfectly since coming back. The original front cap also has a few scuffs, but I have on it a Pentax 49mm cap. exactly the same as the F 50mm comes with.












5. Vivitar PK-A 2x Macro TC Withdrawn
This was also bought on the forum and it has A contacts so the camera can be used to adjust the aperture and use the semi auto modes. It comes with generic caps. It's also in excellent condition. The macro output is great but the TC usage is a little soft at distance, even when stopped down.








I take great care of my lenses and none of them have any fungus or scratches on the elements. They all come with filters (except for the Vivitar). It really makes me sad to have to sell them, but as my financial situation gets more worrisome, my hobby must make way for food and living expenses. If you have any questions, please fee free to message me.

Paypal or cash are the accepted forms of payment. Paypal fees will be split as both parties benefit from it's service. Shipping will be actual cost. Local pick is also a possibility if you are in Poland. I am Lodz, which is essentially Central Poland.

Photos will be posted in a bit.

All Pm's have been replied to and as it stands the K 135mm, F 50mm 1.7, and the Vivitar 2x Macro TC are still up for grabs.
The FA 31 is on hold with 1 person in line, the FA 77 has 3 people in line. If the sale of either lens falls through, I will contact the next person in line in the order that I received the PMs. Thank you all for you time and patience.

It certainly is and it will do 1:1 macro when you slap a 50mm lens onto it. I was using it in conjunction with my F 50mm f1.7. Unfortunately i have not had a chance to do serious macro photography with it yet.

Update: FA 77 is sold. FA 31 is pending payment. All other FF lenses are still up for grabs! I was holding onto these lenses for the upcoming FF.

p.s. I am not leaving Pentax, just taking a hiatus to study and get things financially in order :-(
