FS: Pentax SMC-FA 50mm/1.7, Phoenix 100mm macro, Vivitar 285HV - 06-27-2007, 08:30 PM


Getting rid of some excess weight outta my camera bag...

1. Pentax SMC-FA 50mm/1.7. $145 + $5 S/H. Glass is great, has minor cosmetic issue: chip out of side of filter threads. One situation where it's actually kind of nice the this part is made out of plastic -- just took a chip out versus denting the filter threads, so filters (49mm) still fit perfectly. Optically and mechanically unaffected by that problem though.



2. Phoenix 100mm/3.5 macro + 1:1 adapter. SOLD. No problems at all with this one. This is a weird lens in that the build quality is crummy, the autofocus is a joke, but it's actually a very capable performer when it comes to image quality. It's also light as a feather which is nice. I just don't do enough macro to justify having this in my bag along with zooms that can reach 1:2 already. Sells for $119 new, and Pentax 100mm macros go for over $100-150 used. Here's a review of the Nikon version.



3. Vivitar 285HV. *NEW* $69 + $5 S/H. Step right up, Strobists and Strobist-wannabees. Got this from B&H new, but ended up buying another used one around the same time and I don't need both at this point. This is literally new in the original box & includes the wide angle adapter and original manual, etc. Sells for $89 new.



Okay pics added + lots more pics HERE!
