For Sale - Sold: FS: Tamron SP 17mm Prime Lens

Youngster · 02-01-2008, 04:27 PM

One good condition Tamron SP 17mm f3.5 prime lens for sale. $140 + shipping.

This is an SP series high end lens. All metal construction (other than the focus scale window).

Very clean glass. No fugus. No yellowing. No scratches. Very minor dust. Minor brassing.

Has original hood. (Very important in a wide angle, plus allows for use of filters).

Original caps included (front cap has very small crack on edge of cap, but still completely usable.)

I will include a PK/M compatible adaptall 2 mount. (It is actually a Ricoh mount but the infamous jamming pin has been removed. I promise there will be no jams and it functions exactly as a PK/M lens. I have a K100 and a K10 and have used it many times with no problem.) If you have an adaptall 2 with the PK/A mount, then this lens will have auto aperature as well. (But I only include the PK/M mount).

These pictures don't have the adaptall mount installed, but it is included along with the original rear cap.

Works well with K100 and K10. If you are using a film camera without the crop factor, this lens is even more incredible!

If for some reason you don't want the K/M mount, I will let you choose a Nikon/AI or a Minolta/Sony mount instead.

International buyers welcome. Paypal accepted with extra 5% surcharge.

US shipping $10.
Worldwide shipping $30.

I have one review on the forum so far. 4 others should be coming in the next week as I recently sold 5 lenses. Contact me if you want to look at my ebay profile (which is 100%).

Thanks for looking.

It is a great lens but I need to pass this to someone else as I am looking for Auto metering lens with an A setting and it is not what I am looking for. 17mm is great but I expect more with Auto metering.

Thanks,
Hin
