This would be desastrous, I guess Germany is one of the most important markets in Europe for Ricoh.

I hope they will find another name for this camera, if it exists and if they release it. In Germany, "KZ" is the common abbreviation for "Konzentrationslager", the nazi concentration and extermination camps.
A cam called KZ would be a marketing disaster in Germany and not be salable here around, I`afraid...:fedup:

Yes, but it seems you need to stop down a bit. Wide open, corners are very dark at 300mm.

I did some shots with the new 55-300 on the K1 yesterday evening.
First at 55mm, second at 78mm and third at 300mm. Pictures are not edited.

The DA 18-135.
My copy produced a particularly ugly form of vignetting, corners were soft and AF was a hit and miss roulette.

I also got it from UK for the nice price. It came yesterday and iīm looking forward to test it this weekend. First impressions: Itīs very compact and built quality is good. A beautiful lens for travelling. AF is really fast!

The K35/2 is one of my favorite manual lenses. Beautiful rendering, warm and natural colors and sharp. I payed about the same price as in your offer and I didnīt regret it. During my trip to Asia, I took about 80 % of my pictures with it on the A7. Highly recommended!

Really beautiful shots. Show us some more!
I ordered the D-FA 28-105 for a great price a couple of days ago. Canīt wait to put it on my K1!
It seems to better than the 18-135, which I used for a while on a K3. Sharpness towards the edges, the ugliest form of vignetting I have ever seen, unreliable AF... I sold it rapidly. Maybe i had a bad copy.

I ordered one today. Taking in account the additional import taxes, itīs still about 200 $ cheaper than it is in Germany. Itīs not in stock right now, but for this price i can wait a couple of weeks.

This sounds good. I will be patient and wait for a good offer. They pop up from time to time here in Germany for small money.
Go for it! Itīs an excellent little lens. A bit plasticy, but optics are very good.

I finally picked up a K1 (hooray!!), but I didnīt test it with my old K or M lenses yet.
I took these two shots in february with the K 35/2 on the Sony A7 in Yangon.

I recently picked up a cheap FA 28-105/3.2-4.5 for a try on my K-1. A really bad lens, according to the reviews you can find here :D
Now it looks like I donīt get it off my cam anymore. Not the sharpest one, compared to Limiteds or my FA*80-200. But micro contrast is excellent and the color rendition... I love it.
Here are some recent shots from Berlin.
