Tamron SP 60-300mm F/3.8-5.4 Model 23A

PentaxForums.com Marketplace Listing

Item for Sale
Tamron SP 60-300mm F/3.8-5.4 Model 23A

Asking Price
50.00 GBP

Item Location
London (UK)

Item Description
I advertised this one awhile back hoping to get £75 ($115) - now selling for firm £50 - and this is a fantastic manual focus zoom lens .
Please see my original listing for photos here:
https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/81-expired-listings/304520-sale-expired-t...model-23a.html

They sell on ebay for up to £130. This particular copy takes great photos, A sleeper lens, this is very sharp at 300 with a steady hand (or tripod). The 48FH lens hood included sells for around £10-20 on its own.

Equivalent to 90-450mm lens on a crop sensor and it has an interesting very close focusing macro option at 60mm (see spider photos). You have to zoom out to 60mm the push and turn in the lens like with the pentax-A 35-105mm f3.5. Then you push and pull on the zoom to focus (as opposed to turning) and/or move closer and farther from the subject.

Signs of normal use, a few small specks of dust but not enough to affect performance. No fungus or scratches on the glass, aperture blades working perfectly, f-stop ring clicks nicely. With a PKA adapter (not included) you will have automatic light metering etc.

Comes with front Tamron cap, correct lens hood and rear Pentax cap (no adapter included).
