This K-mount Pentax SMC 300 f4 lens is a nice bit of glass with a clear aperture of 75mm (i.e a 75mm f4 refractor). It is cosmetically very good with just a few minor nicks and there a few minorl spots on the coatings (but not enough to effect optical performance). All the functions, including focusing work smoothly.
The most obvious use would be to use as a manual focus lens with a Pentax SLR/DSLR. But it also appears to make a fine Rich field telescope, judging by the views of the moon I got holding up eyepieces to the back of the lens. It could also be used as Finder or Autoguider scope.
I would like $150 + Postage for this lens. Just a note the same model lens went for $US 227 a few days ago on ebay (item 200061000960) so this represents an amazing bargain for iceinspacer's only.
