Item Description
For sale is one SMC Pentax K200mm F2.5 prime lens. It comes with the original "PENTAX" 77mm front lens cap and an "ASAHI OPT. CO. - JAPAN" rear lens cap.
The lens condition needs to be described in two parts:
Firstly, the lens optics are in EX+ condition. The lens optics are in EX+ condition but the rear element has an issue as described in the thread. They are bright and clear with one
or two specks inside that do not show on images. The front element is clean and shows negligible wear. The aperture blades are clean (oil free), move in unison, and are snappy (not sticky).
Secondly, the body of the lens is in VG condition. This lens has seen a lot of use and has brassing and wear on the outside. The aperture ring clicks nicely and has firm, definitive steps. The focus ring is well damped and requires suitable input to rotate it. There is no play or looseness. The lens hood slides easily and has no deformations/dents that would cause it to become stuck.
This item is from a smoke-free home, and I am a non-smoker. Please note that I have nothing against smokers.
My reasons for selling this lens are as follows:
1. It deserves to be used and I just wasn't using it enough. Somebody else needs to do this.
2. I was recently given a 300mm f4 as a gift and that made me use this beauty even less.
3. If a full frame sensor Pentax is produced, I would not be buying one since the crop factor aids me in my photography. A full frame lens such as this would see no use in my hands.
