The lens has retractable hood. The body and the lens is in mint condition, focus is smoother than a Takumar.

Look at this beauty:

This is how it looks on my K10D:

The lens has been converted to Pentax K-mount by me. It has extraordinary bokeh. Seeing is believing:

I am interested. Can you post a picture of the K mount conversion please? Thanks.

Voe · 08-25-2009, 11:19 PM

Sure, It's not too pretty but it does the job. I only see it between removing the cap and putting the lens on the camera

Ooo

Pretty.

Does she still focus to infinity?

Voe · 08-26-2009, 01:00 AM

Yes, she does. It took me a whole Saturday to modify it.

PM sent. How many aperture blades does this baby have? And does the lens "lock" into place? I modified a M42 lens into K mount as well, but couldn't get it to lock.

It has 6 aperture blades and yes, it locks perfectly, you have to press the release button on the camera to take it off.
