PentaxForums.com Marketplace Listing Item for Sale
Pentax K-5 + D-BG4 Grip + Tamron 70-200 f/2.8 + Tamron 10-24 f/3.5-4.5 Asking Price
$800 (K-5)/D-BG4 Grip ($200)/70-200 ($700)/10-24 ($400) Item Location
Austin, TX (United States) Item Description
I'm selling my recently purchased (March, 2012) Pentax K-5 + Pentax battery grip + lenses. If you're wondering why I'm selling my brand new kit, it's because I'm moving back to Olympus. I was a long-time Olympus shooter and I'm looking to get back into that camp. I've enjoyed my K-5 immensely, but my heart is with Oly. Cheesy, I know. Here are the prices for the gear mentioned:
Pentax K-5 (body ONLY): $800
Pentax D-BG4 Battery Grip: $200
Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8 (Pentax mount): $700
Tamron 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5 (Pentax mount): $400
TOTAL KIT PRICE: $2000 ($100 savings)
Condition of gear: As this entire kit was bought new from B&H Photo in March, 2012, everything is in the condition when I received it. HOWEVER, two issues I want to mention: 1) there is a spec of dust ON THE VIEWFINDER of the K-5, which can be blown off with a blower. I chose not do buy a blower because it never affected my shooting or anything to do with picture quality (spec is on the viewfinder, NOT the sensor). 2) there is a slight indentation on the battery grip where it screws into the camera. This is how the battery grip shipped and it is merely cosmetic. It in no way affects the operation of the camera.

Cool, thanks Adam. I'll give it a try. If I get saliva on the sensor and ruin it, you'll buy me a new K-5, right? Thanks!

Dumb question...how do I just blow it off? Through the lens mount?

Rushed home today to open my new K-5 and lenses. Everything is superb EXCEPT for the huge spec in the viewfinder! Any way to clean the focusing screen or whatever is harboring this annoying spec without having to send my camera back?
Thanks!

Just the other day I came across a thread on here about a way to check if your K-5 is new in terms of shutter actuations and the date it was built. This website has a way to do that? Can anybody tell me how to get there? Thanks!
