Item for Sale
SMC Pentax-FA 50mm F1.7 FA 50 1.7

Asking Price
249.99 USD

Item Location
Syracuse, NY (United States)

Item Description
SMC Pentax-FA 50mm F1.7 lens in excellent condition with front cap and rear cap.

I have a metal hood to include(for free) if you like. The hood does require a 52mm lens cap (currently I'm using the one from my DA L 18-55 lens that came with my K-X since I don't use that lens)

This is a tough one, to let this go. But I just don't use it enough to justify keeping it right now. Extremely sharp lens, especially stopped down. Nothing else I have compares but my Tamron 17-50 2.8 is a zoom (convenience) and is sharp enough for what I need (though not nearly as sharp as this). Yes, I'm sure I'll regret it and I'm sure I'll go seeking one down the road but when I step back for a moment and think, I have other priorities too, and they require cash.

Attached samples are test shots straight from camera, no PP (other than being resized to post here)

One of Pentax's highest rated lenses

Not sure why the last image rotated to landscape?? But it's all the same I suppose.
