What a great finding :) I don't know; I'd probably keep it :)

Looks really awesome. I cannot wait to see some of your pictures shot with it.

The last time the A 50/2.8 macro showed up in the marketplace I was late by an hour :)
In Poland, they are quite rare (and more expensive).
Luckily, Porst 55/1.2 fulfills my desire for a super-fast lens so I'm ok with not buying another one ;)

Yeah... I spotted it in the marketplace, too. Beautiful look. Too pricey for me as I already bought the FA 31 :D
But I decided to buy the A 50/2.8 macro (!!!) from the same herd ;)

Thanks! Initially, I was about to buy the A version of this zoom but all of a sudden, I found the F version at a reasonable price. Today, I'm starting the Single-In challenge with it:)

So far I thought I like primes much more than zooms but I felt this itch and bought the A 70-210. Couldn't stop there and recently I got myself the F 24-50 :)

BLO is pretty good as a "general use" finish and sometimes gives great results - I rarely use anything more.
Good point :)

These are two really beautiful tools! Especially, the joiner's mallet looks great. Is there some oil finish on it?

I just bought a nice set of genuine Pentax extension tubes with mechanical aperture control. It was $20. Not long before that, I had been on a brink of buying some no-name set, without aperture control, so I'm glad I waited a bit and have the original one.

Finally arrived - my fastest lens so far:
First shots wide open were a bit disappointing but I soon realized that it has front focusing issue. After in-body correction it is amazing :)

True. It will be safer to stay with this little innocent LBA :)

I see... Maybe I should consider changing the hobby for a less expensive one :lol:

A-50/1.7 and A-28/2.8 in near-mint condition; plus A-135/2.8 with some sort of glue separation between the elements. It was very cheap so I took it as a part of the whole set and although it looks bad, it doesn't seem to have any influence on the pictures. So yeah, I've got quite a few lenses to explore!
Yeah, DA 21 Limited:) I also have had DA15 for more than a year now, so it seems that I'm halfway there :) But the rest need to wait for some time
I'm afraid that might be the case, too :)

Well, I didn't actually plan it but somehow I have bought the DA21! And since the seller also offered three A-series lenses at very good prices..... Yeah :)
I have quite a few lenses for Single-In challenges now :)
