[SOLD] Pentax SMC FA 28-80 f/3.5-5.6 + Pentax pz-10 film body


[SOLD] Sigma 28-105 f/4.0-5.6


[Available] Pentax SMC-A 50mm f/2.0. I sold another copy in this sale thread.

https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/sold-items/17087-sold-fs-pentax-smc-1-2-50mm.html

This current copy is of better cosmetic quality, though I have not tested it with my gear. For sample pictures of photos taken at f/2.0, please refer to the previous sale thread. The SMC-A f/2.0 does not carry the good reputation that is in contrary to my own personal finding. It is comparable and quite sharp at wide open, e.g.

#1 1/15 sec, f/2.0, 50mm, iso 200, +7/10 Ev, hand-held test shot



#2 1/8 sec, f/2.0, 50mm, iso 400, +7/10 Ev, hand-held test shot



#3 1/8 sec, f/2.0, 50mm, iso 400, +7/10 Ev, hand-held test shot

The ultimate to get is the FA 50 f/1.4 in my opinion, but if you are interested in learning manual focusing, there is nothing like this lens and that of any of the super takumar as the focusing ring is smooth and wide and there is not much lens that can compete with this lens for manual focusing with great precision and brightness in indoor and outdoor in the dark. For the ultimate FA 50mm f/1.4 with auto focusing, there is nothing like this prime for the price after rebate. Not much lens give you the quality of photo rich in color and contrast with a creamy touch of color not seen with my naked eyes

Thoughts on Pentax FA 50 f/1.4 (highly recommended with caveats on more user errors)

[Available] 3. Pentax SMC-A 50mm f/2.0 ($45 + shipping)

Any taker on a mint copy of SMC-A 50mm f/2.0 which I have lowered down the price. Some may find a copy of this lens for about $35.00 in eBay, but this is a wonderful copy in mint condition from lens to even the front cap.

A sample reference of a good copy from a good seller that is in my saved seller is selling this with buy-it-now for $85.00 with a generic cap in this ebay listing. Mine comes with the original 'Pentax' front cap as show in picture.
