I have two Pentax ME Super cameras for sale. Both are in good used condition, one has some small marks on the focusing screen. Both cameras are fitted with Pentax MEII winders. One dedicated Pentax AF200S flashgun is available. Lenses are SMC Pentax 35-70mm zoom (PKA fit), and a Contax 50mm F1.7 (PK fit), also a 2X converter. Seling to fund a lens for my new Nikon F4.

Hi Bob,
Sorry to query your post but I just wondered about a Contax lens in PK fit. I didn't think there was such a creature.
Cheers,
John

John,

There must be, I have one. quite a nice lens too. It must be quite old now, they probably dont make them anymore in PK fit.

Bob,
Thanks for your reply. So far as I understood it, Carl Zeiss and Yashica lenses have only ever been made in Yashica/Contax mount apart from the earlier screw mount ones and the old original Contax rangefinder lenses.
I am most intrigued by a Pentax fit Contax lens and wonder if you have any more information on it. PK is a bayonet fit isn't it?
I'm inclined to see what people on the Contax info group think. Would you have any objections?
Cheers,
John

Hi John,

You are correct. The lens is a Cosina not Contax. Sorry for the confusion.

Bob...
