Item Description
The lens for sale is the Pentax DA 18-250mm f3.5-6.3 ED AL [IF].
The lens is in excellent condition, really is mint/excellent and could easily be described as "like new".
The glass is spotless, front and back, certainly no fungus etc. Snappy blades, focus ring rubber spot on, nothing to fault it. No issues with focusing and there is basically no wobble in the tubes even at full zoom.
I have not handled one of these lenses before, so I did notice the zoom creep. From the reviews this is standard for this lens. The fact that it has a focus lock (for use at 18mm) built in indicates that zoom creep was too be expected.
I purchased this lens second hand as part of a package. I was really after the body attached to the lens as a back up to my K-5 and the total package price was too good to pass up.
I don't need any more lenses! (heard that before?). I already have the 18-135 and 55-300, so a Super Zoom covering 18-250mm is not what I "need" next in my kit.
The camera it came off had less than 700 clicks...which I think explains why this lens is in such great condition.
The lens is original Australian stock...it came with the original receipt from Ted's Camera House...purchased from them September 2009.
Included with the lens is the original PH-RBB 62mm Lens Hood, the original Pentax front lens cap, original box, manual, warranty card with matching serial number and the original receipt (why not?).
The only thing missing is the original rear lens cap. I can include a Sigma K mount rear cap or a third party K mount cap...branded with Pentax but purchased off eBay and not a smooth fit like the original Pentax caps.
If you have any questions or concerns let me know.
Cheers
