Voigtlander 125mm F/2.5 Apo Lanthar SL Macro Pentax K Mount | eBay

Not sure if the price counts as a bargain, but it's certainly a really rare lens, especially in Pentax mount.

I have no affiliation with the seller.

Nice find. The price is (Edit: would be at US$950) almost a bargain if the lens is EX+ or even EX-. The VL125mm is a remarkable lens IMHO, and not just for macro. (I have one and I cherish it.) In the past 4-5 years, it has been usually priced well over US$1,000 for K-mount.

Note that it seems to be a bid, so it will probably sell for a fair bit more than the current $950 (am looking for a good price VL 125, but I'll probably end up just paying a pretty penny once finances are better ~~and once get my hands on the DFA 21 Limited~~...)

The same seller sold one in Nikon F mount several months ago, item went for $1,375 according to his feedback.

9 hours to go, still no bids, 43 "watchers."

$1.325. not a bad price, relatively speaking. Now the question: Was it a pf member?
