Looking for a Pentax 55mm Zebra lens in very good shape cosmetically with no operational or glass issues besides light dust. Cash or trade for one of a number of mint condition DA Limited lenses, a couple of DA Zooms, and a couple of FF lenses I'll be posting for sale soon.

what is a zebra lens?

I'm confused as well

perhaps

This review is specifically for the Auto Takumar 55mm f1.8 Zebra. With 10 aperture blades this is a phenomenal lens for bokeh. The build quality is amazing, the lens looks fantastic, and it has a special character. This quickly became one of the most common lenses to find on my K-1. It's my go to for portrait work, and just walking around. The Pentax 55mm f1.8 is one of the best walk around lenses ever made in my opinion. It is simply a joy to use. My only complaint with this lens is it's almost too small! But it's light and compact. Hell you might forget it's even mounted!
