Hello.
I've made a few purchases here and feel like i've forgotten to leave some feedback. It seems like feedback can be left for anyone, (even in error), the way things are currently set up.
Is there an easy way to go back and see who payments have been sent to, or received by, besides logging into paypal and trying to match transactions there with forum posts and pm's?
Just trying not to deprive anyone of well deserved feedback.
Thanks for reading.
edit; Apologies, i should have posted this in https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/forum-suggestions-news-help/ |

I tried to find my answer by searching around the forums yesterday and today but ..... how can i get my K-5 to take photos with the SMC Pentax-M 50mm F1.4? On another older zoom lens that i have now, i set a dial on the lens to "A" and that works but i don't know yet if this lens has that also. I tried once, but will try again later once I'm home again. Thanks for any assistance.

An offer someone has made me for $200 includes the following;
(.. and oddly,...3771 views but no review on this great forum for the last (third party) lens.. not so sure about the Soligor either).
Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

Hi all.
Just got a 2nd lens for my K-5.. decided to try this lens SMC Pentax-FA 80-320mm F4.5-5.6 (silver) for my first Pentax zoom, in great condition, the seller included an oem pentax pouch and 3 really nice filters.. the lens is very clean, perfect glass.
Attached it, powered on the camera.. noticed immediately a flashing F-- flashing ISO... i can't change iso, can't start live view, AF does not work, lens is unresponsive to pressing shutter 1/2, so i am a little surprised and confused by this experience.
Tried searching the forums and was led to this thread. I have not yet read the manual admittedly on my camera yet but every review that i read about this lens said that it has autofocus (although it's only rated at 6.6) the general consensus is that it works fairly well.. well enough for what i want right now, was my thinking... and for 129 bucks, it was worth a try to me.
So i'm a little confused and a little disappointed, did i not do enough research? Maybe this is a bad copy of lens?
Maybe this is not compatible with my body.. i don't know but i haven't seen any compatibility charts (do they exist?) but believe me i'm looking for one now.. lol ...
Thanks for any advice.

PentaxForums.com Marketplace Listing
Item for Sale
K-5 Body + Extras.. Some scratches, priced accordingly.
Asking Price
$465 USD
EDIT: Feel like I'm asking too much for blemished screen. Lowered price.
Item Location
Maryland (United States)
Item Description
In my haste to get into Pentax cameras, i ended up ordering two K-5 bodies from 2 different sellers in one week.
:eek: <--- me, acknowledging the ridiculousness of this event. I don't even have lenses yet.
So, I am selling this body, and asking the lowest price i have personally seen so far for this model.
I'm not sure how to remove scratches but have seen a few how-to videos online, and will try it if requested.
Here's what i know:
This K-5 has less than 8,500 actuations, has never been dropped and was used for time lapse photography.
The camera also has produced all of these photos. (The amazon seller i bought from, sent me the links & said he was upgrading)
Tumbler link
Picasa Album
Pros:
-Camera is working great, as well as a Pentax should.
-I'm including a few useful accessories at no extra cost.
- Hot shoe cover
- 1 original battery plus 2 spare batteries
- 1 original wall charger
- 1 car charger
- 1 very useful Quick Strap. <--- exactly like this one)
- 1 Sony Branded 16GB SDHC Card
- Original box and cables, manual.
- Latest Firmware installed.
- Fast and inexpensive shipping, including a tracking number, to USA only please.
Cons:
- Screen scratches.
- Slight wear, right hand grip area.. (just noticed while taking photos).
- That's it. No other issues.
May be somewhat irrelevant for my first sale ad but I'm also 100% positive seller online on eBay (e_shark) since 2002, not new to selling online but new here.
I do wish to earn a positive rep here also as a member, seller and buyer. Please ask any questions you may have, for a quick reply.
In my photos, I tried to show how the scratches are not distracting and do not affect functionality, especially when the LCD lit up.. hardly visible.
Photos are all from an iPhone.

Good eye! Nice anticipation.. (assuming since she's running that you saw her to the right and expected there might be a photo opportunity)
Also, I notice you used a WR 18-135 lens.. (i just posted a wanted ad for one of those before browsing this thread, but didn't know there's a 2.8 version)
Were you under cover of any kind at this time?
And congrats on your win!
