Up for sale: an as-new Pentax-A 50mm f/1.2 lens. I bought this new-in-the-box from Japan a few years ago, and have only ever used it twice. I just am not using 35mm much anymore so this should go to a new home where it may get more use.

It includes a Pentax K to Canon EOS adapter, and of course can be used natively use it on K-mount. Includes the original box, packing materials, instructions/warranty/etc., and also a Pentax UV filter that came with it.

Flawless condition mechanically and optically, with no issues whatsoever. The lens has had a leverectomy to make it compatible with all mounts, and will still work fine on K-mount as a stop-down lens.

These still show up in this condition very rarely on Ebay and often sell for $700-850+ when they do. Asking $450 OBO.

Thanks for looking!


 
I have a Pentax-A 50 1.8 and it's the sharpest lens I own.

Good luck.
 
This is a good price! When I bought my f1.2 A perhaps 20 years ago, I paid about $400 for it. It is a lovely lens. You KNOW you want it!
