Are you interested in M42's I have several different Asahi Pentax Takumars for sale, and a few M SMC's and SMC K's, all are older manual lenses but still great lenses on your K-5 with the appropriate adapter. They are great lenses, I have 4 different Taks that I use on my Canon EOS, and I actually use my 50mm Takumar more than I use my Sigma EX or Canon EF 50mm lenses. The adapter for your camera costs less than $10.

I have SMC PENTAX-M 1:2 50mm ASAHI $30pp in US. Rarely, if ever used. Like new, in leather case

manual plus needs an adapter?? Thanks for the offer, but I'm not keen on the use of ADAPTERS. More junk to fumble with.

That's certainly a great buy & if I didn't already have two 50mm lenses, I would take you up on the deal. Anyway, I appreciate the offer. Someone on UHH might hit for you. RJM

I have both the 40mm and 70mm DA Prime. Not for sale but I do recommend adding both to your collection. You will not be disappointed.

I was hoping some or someone(S) would have some of those and other Great "PRIMES" for sale , But I can't afford all of pentax's great glass. RJM thanks for encouragement.

I purchased both of mine used at KEH. Got both for less than one new.

Below is a link to KEH, 77mm prime. What you are looking at here is one of Pentax's most sought after and expensive of the prime lineup.

If you go with the 70mm prime the cost is (used) $300-$400 less. Some think it is better than the 77mm, but some disagree. I feel it's the best lens in my camera bag and would never part with it.
