AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Condition

Appearance

There are minor scuffs and small marks from normal use, but overall the exterior is very clean considering its age.

Optics

A number of very small fungus spots are faintly visible across the internal elements even under normal lighting. However, as shown in the sample photo, these do not affect the image quality in any way.
We inspect optics using extremely strong industrial lighting that would be unsafe to look at directly, allowing us to describe internal conditions more accurately than typical Japanese sellers.

Function

The zoom and focus rings feel slightly heavy, and due to the age of the lens, autofocus may not lock perfectly in some situations. These characteristics are typical for lenses from this era.
Despite its age, this lens remains fully operational, and functional copies of this model are rarely found in Japan. Pentax mount versions are especially scarce, making this lens particularly valuable in the used market.

Accessories

Front and rear lens caps, lens hood, dedicated case, original box (with wear), and other small items.
Everything included is shown in the photos.

Description

A rare super-telephoto zoom lens offering a 170–500mm reach, ideal for wildlife and outdoor photography. The Pentax mount version is especially hard to find, making this a valuable addition for collectors and long-lens enthusiasts.

Shipping

Shipped via DHL or EMS with DDU terms. Import duties and taxes are the responsibility of the buyer.
For items above 350 EUR, shipping will be via DHL. For lower amounts, EMS will be used.

Closing Statement

We provide carefully inspected Japanese used lenses, evaluated under strict standards to ensure accurate information and reliable performance. Japanese equipment is globally respected for its long-lasting quality and careful use. We hope this rare lens from Japan becomes a dependable part of your photographic gear.
