Item for Sale
Rare Pentax M120mm f2.8 w/case

Asking Price
190 USD

Item Location
Eastern, PA (United States)

Item Description
This item would be listed "like new" if only I could find the box, and the case were a bit better. (The box is somewhere in storage. If I can find it, I'll send it along) The lens itself is in perfect condition. It comes with the original case (which shows a fair bit of use as it has carried varied lenses over the years.)

Those of you interested in this lens probably know about it. It was (so I understand) the last of the M lenses. It is an extremely compact 120mm f2.8 lens with a built-in lens hood. (It takes 49mm filters). It has become my favorite M lens.

This beautiful portrait/short telephoto has been treated very gently over the years. (I am the original owner.) I am selling it only because I have too many lenses in the portrait range.

Bump for a great lens. On an APS-c sensor 120mm's is soooo much better than 135mm. Best of luck with this sale. I own one and your's is a lovely one.

Someone beat me to the comment I was going to make as well--it's really an underappreicated gem of a lens (mine reminds me in results of my M50/1.7), probably because so few have them. And 120mm on APS-C is the longest lengh we can go while safely being able to use the 1/180 flash sync speed.
