Item for Sale
Pentax-A 135mm f/2.8 or Pentax-A 200mm f/4

Asking Price
$190 (200mm); 135mm [SOLD]

Item Description
I have too many lenses but love them all... Since I can't decide whether to sell the 135mm f/2.8 or the 200mm f/4, I'll let the market decide for me. Whichever sells first is the one to which I will bid adieu. They are both in good condition. The 135mm has clean glass, just a few small dust specks, and smooth mechanics. The 135mm has the residue where the inspection sticker used to be; this could easily be cleaned I'm sure, I just never bothered to do so. Looks great considering this lens is 20 years old. The 200mm has a couple of tiny paint losses on the aperture ring. The glass does have some what looks like black paint specks on the second element of the lens - it's definitely not fungus, and it's not too bad (maybe thirty of them, dust size particles that look like paint), but it definitely takes the glass far away from being mint. Otherwise, it focuses smooth and the aperture blades are snappy and free of oil.

You guys aren't making my decision any easier!

Right lens, wrong week.

The A135/2.8 is *very high* on my list but I've already committed myself until Uncle Sam pays off his "interest free loan". End of next week though...

alexeyga · 04-15-2009, 05:19 PM

PM-d abou the A135

Very interested in A 135mm lens. But need to leave the country for a few weeks. Missed the deal.
Free bump.

Rykoh · 04-24-2009, 09:03 AM

Sale Pending on the 135mm. I'll leave the 200mm up here for a few more days and see if anybody's interested; otherwise, I'll hang onto it. It's a nice lens.

Can personally vouch for the lens and the seller.

Free bump.
