Seems to be good deals on DA* lenses on amazon uk at the moment for anyone in UK or Ireland (Maybe Europe?). Just picked up a 300 for 650 sterling. They all seem to be around about the 600 sterling (800euro) now. says 42% saving on there but i think its more like about 20 - 25% on what you'll get if you shop around anywhere else in the UK or Ireland?

Might be tempted to sell my 55-300 and or da 15 limited to pay it off, if anyone is interested? 55-300 i used a bit the 15 ive used about 10 times. both in tip top condition.

They are way less expensive than here in Germany as well. Really tempting... must resist...

There is still one left at that price. Couple of 15mm HD DA Limited too, at £305, about 23% off previous lowest UK price. I tried to resist but... resistance is futile.

Interesting! Where & when?

Current price at B&H and Adorama after $100 instant rebate is $596 = £384 and £461 after import VAT, + import duty.

Damn. Weird is that though, I've been checking all their black friday week current and upcoming deals for the last 48 hours so must have missed it. It would be 56% off, which I haven't seen on any other deal, you sure it's this one? Pentax HD DA Limited 15mm F4 ED AL Lens - Black: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics

yes, black one. I think it is VAT tax included in UK.

You lucky fella, there is no way anyone in the EU can avoid the dreaded 20% VAT!

The 100mm Macro is currently up for £299. A steal if ever there was one. Just a shame I've already bought mine (for quite a bit more than that)!
