What a great community we have here, full of active members and responses! I'll definitely do some research on the bodies mentioned.
One of my buddies has a K7 (I think) and he has been complaining about his lenses, so I might give him a good deal on some of them. And some of you has been messaging me as well. =D =) Still might sell them.
Also, I sold the Minolta 135 recently to a Sony guy.
Cheers!

Thanks for all the responses everyone. The one I quoted above made me laugh.:D:rolleyes:
I'm a Nikon guy (don't hurt me) with some pro lenses up to 55mm. I was planning to just sell everything off initially. I did my research on Ebay before coming up with a price. One recently sold for approx. $950 with shipping. I ended up selling the lens for $850 to a local collector. He won't be hacking anything up. Discount given to save shipping hassles and a cash sale vs. potential issues with Paypal and complaints or claims of misrepresentation from out of state buyers. I knew how rare this lens was but now I feel like I've sold the holy grail!
Since I'm still thinking about keeping the others, I just want to confirm that any body I choose will be manual focus only?
I'll look into some of the body recommendations in this thread. Not a big fan of manual focus all the time though.
Once again, thank you all and cheers.

I've recently inherited a handful of lenses. Originally, I was thinking about selling them, then I started thinking about using them instead.
Do any of the lenses mentioned below work with DSLRs? I prefer not to shoot with film (yet) SMC Pentax-A* 85mm 1.4 (Sold it) SMC Pentax 1:2.5 200mm Asahi Optics Co. JapanSMC Pentax-A 1:2.8 24mm SMC Pentax Zoom 1:4/45~125 Asahi Optics Co. Japan -
Super Takumar 1:3.5/24 Asahi Opt. Co., Japan
And some Non Pentax: Minolta Maxxum double XX 135mm f2.8 Maxxum AF Macro 50mm f2.8
Misc: I got offered $300 for the 200 2.5. Looks like a nice piece, with a small dent on the built in hood. Is that a fair offer?
Thanks in advance! |
