Very rare Pentax FA*300 f2.8

Asking Price
2500 EUR (+ shipping cost) Euro/dollar conversion has improved for US résidents, currently 3113 $

Item Location
Toulouse (France)

Item Description
This is the legendary, rare Fa*300 f2.8 from Pentax.
I have a pretty fair legendary lens collection from Pentax including FA*600, A*1200, FA*400 and FA*300., A*200 macro and so on
I currently own 2 copies of this lens. I need to sell one to get cash.
The lens is in excellent optical condition, no scratch, always used with protective filter. Very little dust Inside, normal for such a lens.
Cosmetically there are marks on the fragile silver finish, normal also for a lens that has been used outdoor, even if it was protected.
The lens is fully functional, it is 100 % compatible with the 1,4 RC from Pentax and achives fast, precise autofocus.
A +8 AF adjustment is required, this is the case for both lenses I own and seems usual for this lens.
AF is much much snappy than with a DA*300 and there is a focus limiter
The lens is provided with hard case (not the original pouch), the original Pentax 112 mm protection filter, the original set of drop-in filters, the original simili-leather front cap.

Pictures of the lens (yeah with a 77 limited)

[Pepe Guitarra]

At today exchange, that would be 3,100 x 1.34 = US$4,154, correct? Does this price include shipping, insurance, etc.? Thanks.

Nice!

[Pepe Guitarra]

The +8 adjustment is required on what camera? K5, or K3? Or none of the above?

[goubejp]

K5 and K3.
According to the user review, other users have more or less same adjustment

I have not seen these Pentax colors on any of the Canon lenses. This is a great opportunity here.

I wish you posted some more photos taken with this lens, I do not get tired of looking at them. Maybe I get the money to buy the lens.

This one made recently. The K3 is able to focus with quasi no light, it was 4:26 AM with only moon light
