Looking for a SMC Pentax 55mm F1.8 in excellent condition. No haze, no fungus, no separation, no dents in the filter ring ... no nothing excluding a few dust particles. Looks are not important as long as glass is clean en mechanics smooth.
You have one lying around gather dust (pun intended), please let me know.

Thanks!

Screw mount (M42) or K mount?

I would check out the Pentaxforums classified. Always lots of lenses for sale.

I am constantly looking at Pentaxforums as well as eBay, but the majority of 55mm lenses that pop up are either M42 or have some issues be it haze, dented filter rings or otherwise. And I am specifically looking for a K lens, not a M or A lens.

I guess you already know this but the 50mm f/1.7 SMC Pentax-M is smaller and lighter than and, at least to my eye, optically superior to the old 55mm f/1.8 SMC-Pentax.
