I have a K10D with Promaster AF 18-200 zoom and the original Pentax DA 18-55 zoom lens. Can I use these lenses with K3?

If a lens works on a previous analog or digital Pentax (K-mount), it will also work on the K-3. With adapters, you can use even screw-mount lenses and other formats and manufacturers lenses too. Some restrictions regarding manual apertures apply, but the camera still works with them perfectly. As your lenses are digital ones, you'll have no problem at all.

Yes all the DA Pentax and Promaster (Pentax mount) lenses work with the K-3

My understanding is that all k-mount lenses fit all k-mount bodies. With that, yes, it should adapt.

Both these lens will work fine on the K3. You loose some sharpness and aperture if the Promaster is a Full Format lens

If the lens is a Pentax Bayonet mount it will fit this camera. I use several manual lens from the 1980's on my K20d. The manual lenses will of course only function as a manual, and you will have to set aperture and focus yourself.

I don't have a k-r camera but I would think the 50-200 F4-5.6 would fit. Suggest you log onto pentaxforums.com You will definitely find the answer there. By the way I love this 50-200 lens on my Pentax K100D. It is a very fine lens and I even shoot flowers fairly close up with splendid resolution. And it is an excellent bargain for the price. It is made with ED glass and I get consistently good shots with it. Certainly a better lens than the 18-55 which I also own. Good luck, my friend. I think when my old K100d stops working I will definitely buy either a kx or kr Pentax camera.

Generally the answer is yes. However today i discovered that I have a Sigma 28mm lens that mounts on every pentax film camera I own, but that lens will NOT mount on my Pentax K-x DSLR. I am trying to find out why, and if that can be fixed, and I am close to ordering a K-30 myself, and am curious if it will mount to that Sigma lens!

Yes. Check Pentax web site: http://www.ricoh-imaging.co.jp/english/products/k-5-2/accessories/

Hi,I would say yes without any problems, i have used mine with my Pentax K5 and a sigma 70mm-300mm lens on many occasions with out any issues, since the B Grip has the added support section that sits against your thigh it can be used with this set up with out ant problems.

Amazon made a mistake. Please find the answer on Pentax's website. http://www.us.ricoh-imaging.com/camera-lenses/smc_PENTAX_DA_50mm_F1.8#!product-specs http://www.us.ricoh-imaging.com/dslr/K-5_IIs#!product-specs KAF lenses are usable on K-5 IIs.

Yes, the *ist takes K-Mount. An advantage-if you still have lenses for old Pentax film cameras-is that you can use them on the digital Pentaxes. Besides Pentax lenses, other makes with K-mount will fit.

This lens will fit a K10D and any other Pentax K mount body, but it will not auto focus on camera bodies that do not have the PZ contacts, also known as the power zoom contacts. Bodies such as the K100D, K200D, and *istDS will manually focus only. This lens has SDM focusing only, it does not have both SDM and screw drive, so it will not auto focus on camera bodies that do not have the PZ Zoom contacts.

Solved! I asked this question in another Pentax forum, and this is what I found out: The kit lens in this bundle is actually the THIRD generation of the 18-55, which was released at the same time as the K7. So - an even better deal than I thought!(Or so I suppose. Haven't seen a review of the new kit lens, but it is unlikely to be a downgrade from the last one, I'm sure!)

Yes, Pentax K mount lenses will fit the K-500. I have an old Pentax SL-1 and those lenses work on my K-500 but require manual focus.

I have tried it on my K10D but mostly use it on my K-7. Never had any issue with it.It is one of my favorite lenses...

I ordered the lens to work with my Pentax K-50. Be sure to get the 2X teleconverter with the lens. You can get T-mount adapters for the lens to fit several camera mountings.

Some of the old lenses will not focus to infinity on the Pentax DSLR's. I was disappointed in that. My 135 mm, the 105mm and my 200 mm Super Takumar lenses would not focus at infinity. You will definitely need the modern D, DA or DAL lens to fully use of all the camera functions.

My bet would be "yes". I have a Pentax K30 with both 18-55mm and a 50-200mm lenses. With the 50-200mm lens on the camera the depth of the camera body and lens is about 6 1/2". It easily fits in the center compartment and has some room to spare.

I have the Pentax K-5 IIs and it works fine. So I'm not positive it will work with the K-3 I'm pretty sure it will. As far as the remote itself it works great.
