Re: I want a FA 28-105mm f/3.2-4.5 AL IF...BUT NOT IN SILVER!

Good question. I've been wondering about that one for a while. I've see
black 28-105 on BH website shortly after they began selling the lens. They
sold out quickly and never appeared again. Maybe writing to BH or Adorama
customer service to inquire about the possibility of ordering the lens
directly from foreign Pentax distributor will help.

Best regards,
Albert

 I've read many good things about the lens in the subject line.  I am considering 
 making this the standard lens for an
 MZ-S of which I am awaiting shipment.  This lens is apparently made in black, as 
 well as silver, but the the silver
 appears to be the only version imported to the US.  If I understand the Pentax 
 Germany website, the black version can be
 obtained there, but the German price is significantly higher (289 Euros).  Is it 
 possible to get the black version in
 the US without paying a high (in excess of 15% of the 
 silver price) premium?
