I got mine on Adorama. Its M42 to K mount for Pentax. Get a good quality one other wise it might get stuck to the lens or camera.

Piece of cake. You need an m42(screw mount) to Pentax K mount adapter. Good one should be under $10.00. Brass is preferable.

I got a generic one at ebay for around 7 US $, some times original ones shows up around 30 US$

Well.... Guesing that you are looking for and M42 to K adapter for pentax, you can search here at amazon or outside, there are many. And the K5 is capable to use an M42 lens with the right adapter.

If the old lenses as Pentak K-mount lenses; but check with the experts on Pentax Forums (which has FAQs about this).

Yes.. Pentax SLR "K" mount lenses will work... Along with the screw mount type with an adapter..

The only lens I use with this adapter is fully manual, and has its own aperture ring which functions as it would on any Pentax K-Mount camera.

Yes, no problem. Even all your MF lenses will work fine on the k30 too, though they will stay MF (there's a couple settings you have to change in the menu and on the mode dial switch). In fact, with an adapter, m42 lenses work great on the k30! I have a few of those and they are amazing to use especially with the feature called focus peaking that shows you what areas are in focus.

Perhaps the best guide for A-mount lenses can be found on the Dyxum website: http://www.dyxum.com/LENSES/INDEX.ASP

Remove the existing ring around the lens ( mine is black and easily turns counter clockwise) The adapter then goes in it's place.

I haven't used any, but all the information that I've read about the K-50 has mentioned that any K-mount lenses CAN be used with it. That is one of the great selling points of this - and other cameras in the "K" line.

With the proper adapter there should be no problem but I have no experience adapting Pentax k lenses to Canon bodies.

Yes, but. I also have a K1000 and I have put the lenses on my new K500. They do not operate in the automatic mode setting (on the side of the K-500). I set the lever to MF instead of AF.S or C and they work well. Obviously, the aperture as well as the focus is manual.

I also have a K mount SLR zoom lens. This adaptor allows me to use it on my Nikon DSLR 3200 that has the F mount. Works fine in manual Mode, auto functions do not work with my older lens.

I have the K5 and I didn't order the 18-55 lens with it because I had one, and it works very well with it

Mine came with an adapter that fit my K100d. Don't know if it will fit K200d. E mail the seller and they will answer your question

I have never seen an adaptor with additional screws. The ones I have used screw into the lens and receive the filter on the outer diameter with screw threads that match the filter's

The kit includes adapter rings for most popular-sized lenses. You should have no problems. Just screw it on as you would a filter, attach the filter holder, and slide in the square filter you want to use.
