Hi, I'm soory but I can't do anything for the shipping cost, the package will be close to 4kg (can't do lighter, the lens itself wieghs 3335g), so we can go trough small packets rates to reduce the cost. As I've just listed the lens, did'nt received my new one yet, I won't move my price down, maybe I will later, if the lens don't sell, as I'm used to do Wink
Here's the K mount one on Ebay : Click here to see on Ebay Sold for 606€ Wink

Did you buy the K mount Ebay unit? It looked to be in pretty good shape.

Ha ha ha!!.....Well if it was a screwmount, that would be a possibility, but as it's not, I'll have to leave it for another lucky buyer.....however, if a mint, original screwmount came up with case/caps etc....well, you never know!
Cheers, Pickles.

Pickles, I do believe the lens for sale is M42 screw mount unless I'm suffering acute comprehension difficulties.

No, I bought another S-M-C Takumar 500/4.5 in M42 mount, but in the same condition (+ case) than the K mount on Ebay I posted, that's why I sell this one Smile

I've added two full resolution pics with the lens Smile

The lens is now available for an immediate shipping (once paid, of course) Wink

Topic slightly updated, as it seems to be unclear that the lens is in M42 mount (not K). I also added two pictures taken with the lens and a discount price for members that already bought stuff from me Smile


Reply

I would be all over this to replace my Pentacon if I had the cash, maybe I'll be lucky and it'll hang around for a while. Smile


Reply

Maybe you have the cash now ? Wink

An other, but at an other price Wink
