The Pentax K's standard lens is the 50mm 1.8 "Zebra" lens.

The sale on December 18th was with a 2.2 50mm lens, which is not the standard lens for this camera.

The sale on February 11th was listed as body only, but it was sold with an F2 lens. However, this is not the standard 1.8 lens. So with that I decided to classify it as body only (the lens in this case is essentially worth nothing.)

The sale on April 28, 2014 was sold with an F2 lens.
