I have been reading the forum regarding fungus in lenses, so I thought I would show this lens some daylight and make sure all was ok. Glad to say, clean as a whistle:
Pentax 2000mm Reflex, Gitzo 5531s, Pentax K7 + OEM Grip, Wimberley MKII Gimble Head, Lens Coat Camo + Plus Pentax Strap attached to camera!

Hi Clarky,
That is my next task - to post some imgages from this lens. Just waiting to the opportunity to get out in some good weather and use it!
With a minimum focus of 20m, it is a bit big for taking photos in my back garden
Regards
David

I wonder how the 1.7AF adapter would work with it...

Ask a question and be a fool for five minutes. Keep quiet, and be a fool forever. Chinese proverb.
Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.
