anyone got a spare pentax (original) rear (slr lens)cap FS?

2001-02-26 Thread dees

Just got a 28mm f3.5-K off ebay thats in pretty nice shape - I'm
thinking of trying it tomorrow - but of course there's an ugly generic
rear cap.. teach me to go selling my lenses with both their original
caps instead of saving one ! 
anyways, if someone got one in LN condition FS (or trade.. for a hood
perhaps? got several lying round), I'm interested!
thanks

Re: Lens offer; Anyone bought from this guy?

Stan Tamulevich definitely rings a bell.. I know I bought something from
him, but it was ages ago and cant remember what? at any rate, its *not*
a red button, the name rings positive to me...

ahh there's a body search too! never thought of that :-)

yup the sacred word *does* appear in the 'body', so I guess the
extra-careful searcher will eventually stumble upon it... within the
three-day span that is!

oops, looks like you cannot add anything to an item's title once there's
a bid :-Oo

I see... My fisheye is, bien sur, a K-mount. that explains it then!
okay I guess I'll find another way of getting a 50mm f1.2 :-)
I got a 50mmf1.4-A which I like a lot, just was curious to use the 1.2
in low(er) light...
thanks Chris!

actually there's someone currently offering to trade my SMC-K 17mm f4
(fisheye) for his 50mm f1.2. Both lenses are in perfect condition (well,
mine is! and of course he says his is too) - and I *am* interested in
the f1.2 , especially if I can get one without getting in the red but...
isnt the fisheye worth somewhat more? anyone can tell me?

whats up w the pentax K primes on ebay?

2001-02-17 Thread dees


I've been watching the scarce 'mint' ones go unsold for awhile now - first
the 30mmf2.8-K, then the 20mm f4-K and now the 50mm f.1.2-K - all from
same seller, and the prices were (relatively) low, how come? people losing
interest in K series, or cause of the seller?
and thanks for all the helpful feedback cc. tripods! I think I *got*
it now -
ie, get the benbo 1, or a real sturdy table
top, or a magic arm for my manfrotto, right? okay, if I post a FS on my
lightweight benbo trekker here, you'll know why :-)
Um, how about the Benbo 2 currently auctionned on ebay? cant find any
specs on that one anywhere (B&H only sell the 1 and 7) - looks much
like the trekker, is it any sturdier?

I have been wondering about that, too. actually one of the reasons for
my prefering 'vintage' cameras is their wonderful viewfinders
