Will my K100 wide angle lens fit Pentax K200D? I want to buy Pentax K200D, right now I have film K100, will my wide angle lens fit on the new camera? Thank you!

As others have said, it'll work. Be aware, though, that the K200D's image sensor area is smaller than the 35mm film area. The apparent focal length is 1.5 times the 35mm focal length. This means a 12mm lens will appear like an 18mm lens.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crop_factor

Any Pentax EVER MADE will work with this camera. The screw mount lenses need an adapter. This goes for old lenses made for the K1000. I know, because I use them!

I have this lenses and it worked very good on my K500 PENTAX. Which is almost the same as the K50. This I hope is some help.

I have used the old K1000 lenses (pentax 50mm lens it came with and an off brand telephoto) on my pentax k-3 with no issue. It is all manual, so I have to take a guess at metering, and of course no auto focus, but it works, it mounts and produces nice results. You will have to have knowledge of manual metering to produce the results you want.

I own the lens it works perfectly on my pentax k30 and should work perfectly on the pentax k50. I am not sure what compatibility check would claim it does not work on the k50. The lens at f1.8 is fast, it is inexpensive, it is sharp and is a my favorite lens for portraits.

Yes. It will fit most SLR's. I don't have a k1000 but a friend does and has the same release. Hope this helps.

Just be sure to buy PENTAX version. And yes, it fits with your K500 as well as other pentax cameras with K mount. For the price, this is the best choice. But, in my opinion, I prefer 55-300WR, more zoom and its weather sealed.

It depends on the seller, the Pentax K1000 is a manual 35mm Single Reflex Lens camera body. What this means is the body has a "mount", in this case the Pentax K-mount that will take hundreds of lenses with K-mount or with the appropriate adapter. Often the camera is sold with a lens, 50mm f/2 for example, but you must ensure it is sold with this from the seller. Best bet is to contact the seller directly. Typically if it is just the camera it will state "body only" or "without lens" but depends on the seller. According to the description it states "with 50mm f/2.0 lens" which is the "standard" starter lens for film.

Thanks for the good info. I had a Canon Rebel that I returned because of picture quality with the standard kit lens. I have been trying to decide between the Nikon D90 & the Pentax K20D. I am going to go with the K20D and start with the 18-250 and see how far I go. So I am off to shop now. Again... Thanks a lot.

Yes--the lens will work with the Pentax kx. Sigma makes third party lenses that are built for the big-name cameras such as Canon, Nikon, and Pentax. For example, you can get the Sigma 18-200 lens for either of the aforementioned cameras. Just make sure you purchase one that says it's for Pentax cameras. This Sigma lens is a good all purpose, "walk-around" lens. You can put this lens on your camera and use it for a wide range of photography--indoor, outdoor, portrait, landscape, etc. Sigma is one of the best "third-party" manufacturers as their lenses are good quality for the money. Of course, "name brand" lenses such as Pentax, Canon, or Nikon, are better quality with better image quality, however, they are also often more expensive. Sigma is a very good compromise.

Is this lens compatible with my PENTAX K100D SLR? Will the auto focus work? Will I be able to use the scene function of my camera?

I doubt that this lens would be available in the Pentax K mount. Even if it were, the autofocus functions would not work, and the lens probably wouldn't cover a full 35mm frame. While the 18-200 zoom range is very attractive, you ought to be able to find a more appropriate lens that would not cost as much.

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.

Pretty much any Pentax K mount lens will fit any Pentax. I think it will work.

Mine came with an adapter that fit my K100d. I do not know for a fact that it will work with a k20d, but it does say in the listing on amazon that it will.

this works fine on the k20d. I have it on my k20d and it is a fine lens. great to have if you want a good prime lens.
