Additional Details
DA 16-45, F4 in great shape. Aperture fine (snappy and clean). Glass fine front and rear. Lens in spot on focus for my *istD, K110D, K10D and K20D. So you know you are getting a great copy. The lens is cosmetically clean and kept on a soft pouch (not included) when not glued to a camera.
This lens got a lot of use last year doing personal shooting and wedding work. Never once let me down.

Close focus (Macro)
Quick shift manual focus

I'm only selling because I picked up a Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 EX Macro that will help in low light weddings. Frankly the Pentax is the better lens, a touch sharper at all apertures and slightly nicer colour rendition. But for my 'working needs' the Sigma will be better when the light is really low. At f4, the Pentax is sharper than the Sigma but they are close.
If I had the $$, the DA16-45mm would never be sold.

Includes:
Lens
Hood
Lens cap/Rear cap(non-OEM)
original box etc.

Wow, over 70 views and no one is interested? Sweet lens for less than Fleacebay.

ftpaddict · 02-14-2009, 05:23 PM

I'd jump right in to get this lens, Peter, but I already bought one.

Good luck with the sale.

I think I helped Ben too much. Dried up all the money here

deadwolfbones · 02-14-2009, 06:37 PM

Same old story: interested but can't afford.

Mr Hyde · 02-14-2009, 07:22 PM

I had to look to see why you were selling this gem. I too also have one. Good luck with the sale.

**EsBee** · 02-14-2009, 08:32 PM

Yep here too, Peter. Just got mine a week ago and loving it. Free bump.

i too just got one of these last week (and then dropped it and broke it - but that's a different story). It is a definite upgrade over my kit lens and the 16mm wide angle is GREAT for indoor photography and other small space shots. I am loving that most of all. Good luck with the sale!
