Thanks for the link with great pictures.
This lens is still available. A couple of people have PM'd me with interest but oddly they haven't responded in a couple of days so I'll just give it a bump.

Up for sale is a rare Pentax K 30mm f/2.8. Often called the poor-man's 31mm limited, I like to think of it as the smart-man's limited.
I guess that makes me not smart for selling it though. With a 45mm equivalent "normal" view after crop factor, it has a solid and
compact build and excellent sharpness. It meters well on my K10D with the green button and I really enjoyed using it.
Despite its 5 aperture blades, it has pleasing bokeh and I didn't find any distracting highlight pentagons.
It is in excellent+ condition with no scratches or marks on the body or wear on the aperture ring. The glass is flawless
as far as I can tell and the aperture blades are nice and snappy. It comes with both Pentax caps as well as a generic case.
Price: 250 USD [firm]
For comparison, KEH politely insists you pay $400+ for a fine lens like this and e*ay usually has one on the
buy-it-now-at-an-astronomical-price deal going on.
shipping: USPS, will consider others
about $10 insured for ConUS
Paypal ok, but if you're funding from a credit card Paypal adds a 4.9% fee but I'd be willing to split it with you.

Great bokeh. I believe this is f/2.8 because of the slight octagonal highlights shape
Wide aperture allows good fast action shots! (ISO100 F/2.8 1/4000) |

Up for sale is the highly regarded Pentax K 135mm f/2.5.
The solid build, gloriously damped focus ring, and buttery smooth aperture ring
with great click-stops are something that must be experienced!
It is in excellent+ condition with no scratches or marks on the body or aperture ring.
The glass is flawless as far as I can tell and the aperture blades are nice and snappy.
It comes with both caps as well as the original case and clip on hood.
There are some light superficial scratches on the hood from stowing it in the case.
Price: 225 USD [firm]
shipping: USPS, will consider others
estimated < $10 for ConUS

photozone has even tested this lens! Pentax SMC-K 135mm f/2.5 - Review / Lab Test Report http://www.takinami.com/yoshihiko/photo/lens_test/pentax_tele.html
The case is in decent condition and includes the proper interior padding to hold the lens and hood snugly
(which was not so with another case I ran across).

Here a sample image I scanned from inexpensive print film. I believe it was taken at f/11. Along the left side is blurred because my camera doesn't hold the film flat enough on that edge.
If you would like, I can email you the full-size scan that has only been slightly processed (8+MP). It has great resolution, you can see the pattern in the backstop netting even on the furthest side.

I don't have access to them right now. Tonight, I'll take a look at what I have, otherwise I can take some around campus tomorrow if the weather cooperates.

Thanks for catching that. It's hard to get the K28/3.5 out of you mind when daydreaming of great lenses.
I guess I can't change the thread title, I have edited the contents though.

PentaxForums.com Marketplace Listing Item for Sale
Pentax K 24mm f/3.5 Item Description
Up for sale is a Pentax-K 24mm f/3.5 that I have had for about 6 months but haven't been giving the attention it deserves. I believe it has the same lens formula as the well regarded takumar 24/3.5. Have tested it both on film and digital and was delighted particularly by its low distortion and sharpness.
Lens is in near mint condition. Not a mark on the coatings as far as I can tell, and no visible internal dust. No scratches, brassing, or paint loss (even the on aperture ring). Focus is buttery smooth and well damped. Comes with case in excellent+ condition and original strap (still packaged, not shown). Original Pentax front and rear caps.
Feels very solid and is surprisingly hefty for its size.
Note that in the pictures below the lighting make the case look to be in worse condition than it actually is. Are you the original owner of the item being sold?
No Are you selling or trading this item?

Up for sale is a Pentax DA 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6. This is the kit lens that came with my K10D. It is
about 9 months old but has seen little use as I moved towards primes. It's in excellent condition
and usually had a filter on it. Includes both original caps, hood, box, and papers as seen in photo.
I tested it extensively for sharpness during my initial excitement over getting my K10D and it
proved excellent corner-to-corner. Also, there were no focus issues.
$53 shipped ConUS USPS priority OBO.
Paypal is fine... open to alternatives as well.
I will consider shipping outside the US if you can convince-me/suggest-how it's not much extra effort.
Don't let my low post count scare you. I have made several transactions here and have
good feedback under the same name on *bay. |
