Two wide angle full frame Pentax lenses




Selling two FF zoom wide angle lenses.

First is a 17*28 Fish eye zoom that I am the original owner. Included are the lens caps and the original bag that came with the lens. Asking $300.00 which included Canada Post shipping in Canada or the US

The second is a 20-35 FA F4 lens with caps and the original lens hood. The hood is missing the window cover and I do not think it had it when I bought it a couple of years ago off this forum. I am asking $325.00 for this one including Canada Post shipping in Canada or the US. Prices are in US dollars. SOLD

I find that I just am not that much of a wide angle guy especially when shooting the little 35 mm film that I do and not planning on buying a full frame digital body and more that happy with my DA15 on digital. Both lenses work great, glass is clean however the zooming on the fish eye is slightly tight but has been that way as long as I can remember.

Paypal preferred and I as the seller will of course cover the selling costs of Paypal

It works very well on the K-1, especially for its light weight. Shield it against flare, though. I'd love to see a new version of this with the latest coatings.

I don't use mine a great deal, Andre, but I really like what the 20-35 has produced. Good luck with it.

For those in the line up for the 20-35, I will let you know tomorrow afternoon if the first sale has gone through.

The 20-35 is now sold. The 17-28 fish eye is still available though. Thanks and good luck to those on the waiting list.

Apparently when I loaded the images I do not do so correctly as they show up on my computer at home but not the one I am on right now. I will reload the images this evening. The Fisheye lens is a Pentax F series lens

I thought I had downsized my original images but had not

And everyone shooting the K-1 needs the 17-28 Fisheye zoom.

I would be willing to trade for a DA 21 Ltd

Sure, but they're all 1:1 square cropped. Nice pics but the 20-35 goes much wider on FF.

No, that's just the thumbnails.

Well, its MTF curves do head way south 18mm off-center.
