Hi!
I need to downsize my photo gear...
1. The FA 20/2.8 is again for sale. Last month it had a focus jam, that
was fully repaired by Pentax Israel. They replaced some parts in the
mechanism and now it operates as it used to - with slight change of
resistance towards 0.4 mark on the focusing ring. I took few shots with
it after the repairs and AF is both fast and accurate. The repairs are
covered by half a year warranty by Pentax Israel. I am not certain if it
can be claimed abroad.
Full review of this very lens is here:

Asking USD 700 which covers everything - fully insured EMS shipping and
PayPal fees. Or make me an offer.
2. I have decided that I don't want the DA* 16-50/2.8. Instead a Sigma
17-70/2.8-4.5 is on its way to me. If (and I hope it happens soon) it
arrives safely - I will use a pair of lenses - this Sigma and Sigma
24-60/2.8 for my standard zoom stuff. So DA* 16-50/2.8 has to go.
It is in very good condition with only very slight signs of use, which
is mostly graying of rubber rings crevices, probably caused by the salt
from my hands. Everything works as it should - the previous owner
claimed no SDM problems and I had none either. Please realize that I
cannot offer returns and I don't know if and when the SDM motor may
decide to play up. But really - it's seen only relatively moderate use -
about 5000 exposures in my collection, so I hope it is a safe buy in
this respect.
Asking USD 700 which again covers everything. If you buy both FA 20 and
this lens it will be USD 1300 for both.
Please contact me off the list if you're interested.
Boris
