Lens is Pentax-K...in short, no Nikon compatibility.

Just a little bump for the seller!

I own the Zen 16/2.8 and am one of its main fans here on Pentax Forums. I use mine as a wide-angle solution on APS-C and as a fisheye on 35mm film. One question I have of the seller...Can you confirm that the lens is properly adjusted for infinity focus? A significant number of these lenses (mine included) leave the factory unable to focus further than 8-10 feet!

In addition to the seller's pictures, here is a link to photos on my Flickr account taken with my copy (LINK). (Two of those Zen shots were accepted into the PPG...)

I know this is not a discussion thread but the seller is getting a free bump anyway. My Z16 f2.8 had the same problem and I actually hated the lens until I made the simple adjustment. Now, I'm quite happy with it.

Sorry if I've overstepped here but this really is a cool lens to have.

I will take a few new test shots, I never had a focus issue with it.
