Item Description
* Previous buyer said they going to send payment, then didn't *

Selling one of my all-time favorite lenses. Well... one of my favorites on APS-C. I loved this lens on my Pentaxes. But I'm shooting m4/3 now, and while the lens performance is quite good even with the smaller sensor, I just can't get comfortable with the field of view 180mm gives me on m4/3, whereas I really took to it on APS-C. Hence the tough decision to sell.

I'm listing the lens condition as "fair" because the focus ring gets a bit tighter as I turn it toward the longer focal distances. It doesn't prevent proper focus, but you can feel the increased resistance as it turns.

Other than that, the 63B is in very good condition. Glass has some very light marks and a bit of dust, the barrel shows signs of use by still looks great (IMO). Comes with original caps and hood, also a P/KA adapter that IIRC functions only as a PK (that is, no aperture control).

Lens comes from a clean, smoke-free home. Never dropped, taken out in poor weather, left in the car overnight, etc.

Image quality is wonderful. Decently sharp wide open, very sharp stopped down just a little. Bokeh is generally lovely, rich color and contrast (particularly in good light), the lens is petite and a joy to handle.

Super-low price of $195 + shipping. Might also be interested in a trade for m4/3 gear.
