I'm looking for one for the next holidays but will not jump due to customs fees.

Free bump

Thanks for the bump

If you worry about the import tax, we sure can work something out (mark down its value, and etc...). Some European friends bought stuff from me before w/o paying any import tax

frank · 04-06-2009, 07:26 PM

Price lowered to $350. That's the best offer I can give for now ...

Sodbuster · 04-06-2009, 07:58 PM

If only this was a month from now.

Thanks for the offer but I prefer to always buy stuff with full insurance. And concerning customs, I might get lucky or not. ...

Well, this thread make me get a DA 18-250 since another forum member sold me one from EU after reading here my interest.

Free bump again and I'm sure pretty soon (at the most you have a offer for next month

) you will have the lens sold.

Cheers.

Another bump for a great lens and a great forum member. I have the Tamron version of this lens. Same optical formula but lacking the Pentax coating. Here is a picture I took earlier in the week with this lens:

First I have to receive the smc A 50mm f 1.2 I snagged and evaluate it, take pics and sell it here before I could do this. (am I nuts? that is a classic lens)

Thanks. That's a very nice shot. People would think this lens is for bright light. But I guess you can make excellent night shots w/ it too

Oh yeah, I know what you feel. The A50/1.2 is an excellent lens w/ creamy bokeh and nice color rendering. Can't beat it for low light photography.

Hi Alfisti,

Those are excellent shots, and even more on your site.
I do like that mystic feeling of that bridge!
I have this lens too, just bought in a set, but never took it out yet.
Your pictures make me go wandering with it!

Thank you,
