I'm selling some stuff for my K-7 + DA*16-50mm fund :-)
Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 [SALE PENDING]
This is a Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 EX DC macro for PK mount purchased in Aug. 2008, so is still under warranty. It is in absolutely mint condition; optics perfect without any scratches, fungus, clouding, etc. Cosmetics is near perfect except for perhaps some very faint rub marks that you might notice if you squint.
It has been a great walkaround lens for me, and I wouldn't think of selling it were it not for the fact that with my intended upgrade to K-7, I felt the need to get a weather resistant lens for it.
I've checked for FF/BF issues and they are not present.
Comes in original box with original everything, and proof of purchase (from Amazon.com) should you need it for servicing in the future.
ASKING PRICE: $300 HIGH RES. IMAGES HERE Pentax F 50mm f1.7 [SOLD]
Here is the fast and sharp 50mm prime. Not as fast as an FA 50/1.4, but compensates for it with it's extreme sharpness. I am the second owner, and it's in EXC condition.
Cosmetics: 8.5/10 - very light rub marks on the barrel (hard to photograph) and some speck of dust inside the window of the distance scale.
Optics: 9/10 - I see no problems with them whatsoever. No scratches, fungus, haze, etc.
Mechanics: 9/10 - I see no problems. Aperture blades oil-free and snappy, AF fast, no FF/BF issues as far as my testing resolved.
Comes with genuine Pentax front and rear caps (although not the original ones for this particular lens).
ASKING PRICE: $120 HIGH RES IMAGES HERE KatzEye focusing screen for K10D/K20D w/ OptiBright [SOLD]
Just bought it couple of months ago, as some of you know if you followed my postings in the KatzEye thread. If so you would also know that I made a very light, but definitely visible scratch in the screen during installation. It is off to the side, does not affect the function of the screen (it does not go over the microprism collar or the split prism), and is nearly invisible if you're focused on your subject. If you concentrate on the screen, it is visible. For this reason, I'm willing to part with this for $100 (paid $160). I wouldn't let it go for even $160 if it would be usable in the K-7 I'm intending to purchase, but we already know the focusing screens will not be interchangeable between K10D/K20D and K-7.
Comes with original protector case, installation tool (plastic tweezer), and instructions.
Because you may decide that the scratch is too distracting, I'm willing to accept returns for this item for the first week of your ownership, provided you do not add to it any more blemishes :-)
ASKING PRICE: $100 K20D [SOLD]
This is for a K20D that looks great cosmetically, but with a modest number of actuations (19,000), still under warranty till October, original of everything in fantastic condition, and added bonus that the manual focus has been precision calibrated by folks at KatzEye so you can be 100% sure of it's accuracy ($60 service).
Two people are already interested in this, but I'm listing this just in case both of them fall through.
ASKING PRICE: $500 HIGH RES IMAGES HERE FOR ALL ITEMS
You pay for actual cost of shipping and Paypal fees, if applicable (e.g., if you're in the US and using Paypal funds, this would be zero). Also willing to accept personal checks, money order, etc. under the condition that I will send the item after everything clears.
I haven't done too many transactions on this board, but check out my feedback for Ebay member name: ciguatera303. You can also see what people say about me over at MFlenses.com, one transaction I made at Luminous Landscapes, etc (I go under the same user name pretty much everywhere).
I ship fast and furious, usually the same day that payment is cleared.
Thanks for checking this out :-)
