On second thought, I feel I have overpriced things, so I am lowering the prices. >For sale: >Pentax ZX-5n in EXEC + (excellent plus) condition. I bought this from someone >on this list five months ago. Someone who had only had it a year or less. >Slight scratches (very slight) on top of the flash, and a slightly bigger scratch >next to the view finder. Other than that it looks and acts new (actually it >looks great). IMHO, the ZX-5m has a very good light meter. Included are: >original camera strap (says Pentax), Battery Grip FG (also EXEC+, mint looking), >Pentax Cable Switch F (for shutter release -- bought new by me at Adorama), the >view finder cap, the body cap, the Zx-5n box, the Switch F box, camera manual, >warranty/other info., & instructions. $285 lowered to $275 (firm) >Tamron AF 70-300 f/4.56 LD Macro 1:2 -- EXEC+, like new. Macro works at 180mm >and above. I have just loved this lens, optically it seems quite good and the >macro feature is handy. In fact, I have liked it so much that I have also >gotten one for the Elan 7e. I bought this new at Adorama bundled with the TC in >Feb., so it is still under warranty (although I have no idea how warranties may >be passed along). Included are: Tamron F 1.4 AF TC, lens hood, front and rear >lens caps, and two boxes. The barn in this month's pug was shot with this >zoom and all the other pictures on my show page except for the tree. >(http://members.aol.com/tamecomputer/) $145 lowered to $130 >Pentax FA 28-70 f4 AL, EXEC+. The original owner of the ZX-5n bought this >lens at the same time. This zoom supposedly shots down to 3.3 - 1.3 feet, but I >have found fall off when doing that. Used as a normal and not a macro or semi >macro zoom, it is just fine and was rated fourth place in PDML normal zoom pool >conducted by Arnold Stark last November . This is a good zoom that I have >found to be very flare resistant (I have used it shooting into the sun in >landscape shots several times). Included: original rear and front lens caps, box, and >warranty/other info., etc. The tree on my show page was shot with this zoom. >http://members.aol.com/tamecomputer/) $135 lowered to $110 >Vivitar 2000 Flash, Adjustable Bounce Thyristor Flash, good condition. I >bought this from Henry's on ebay about eight months ago for the Pentax K-1000 >and have never used it. Not sure what other Pentax cameras it will work with. >Included are: box and instructions. $15 (not lowered, I am pretty sure this will work on most Pentax manuals) >Plus US Post Office shipping charges to wherever you are. Straight shipping >charges, no additional "handling" charges. If you want insurance you will have >to pay extra for that. I can accept personal checks, money orders, and cash or >credit card payments through PayPal. >If interested, contact me off list. If you think my prices are too high, make >me a fair offer (coming close to a price shown) and I will consider it. Marnie aka Doe ;-) That's if for lowering. I'll try again next weekend at these prices (this was not a good weekend to do this), then onto ebay.
