All PENTAX 35mm lenses will work with the PENTAX DSLRs. Non-PENTAX brand lenses are not tested for compatibility with our DSLRs. In addition, use of other brand lenses on our DSLRs may result in the lens becoming stuck on the camera, which could damage the camera's lens mount and void your RICOH/PENTAX warranty. Some older RICOH lenses such as RICOH-P, lenses marked "KR" or "PK-R" or lenses with a metering pin projecting from the lens mount are not compatible with PENTAX DSLRs. PENTAX bayonet mount lenses work naturally and without the purchase of any adapters. Older PENTAX screw mount lenses will require the purchase of a Mount Adapter K (Part#30120, approx. $30). In the Menu under Custom Settings, set "Using Aperture Ring" to "Permitted" for lenses that have aperture rings, when the aperture ring is not in the "A" position. The K-50 and K-500 use essentially the same settings with older lenses: PENTAX A-series lenses (lenses with an "A" setting on the aperture ring), can be used as manual-focus lenses in all exposure modes on a PENTAX K-50. Early PENTAX K-series, M-series and S (screw) mount lenses without auto-aperture control (an "A" setting on the aperture ring) can be used in Manual exposure mode using stop-down metering and manual focus. This is the exposure mode which will give accurate exposures when using these older lenses on our digital SLRs. If older lenses without an "A" setting on the aperture ring are used in Av (Aperture Priority) Mode, an exposure error may occur. Note: Using PENTAX S (screw) mount lenses on a PENTAX DSLR requires the use of a Pentax Mount Adapter K.

Hi Harry - I have a Pentax K2000 and a K5, but I use it on the K2000, I think it should be compatible with any pentax. Hope this helps!

Yes, it should. As far as I know (and I have both a K10D and K-5), all the Pentax DA lenses are compatible with current Pentax digital SLRs, that's what the "DA" in the name of the lens means. You can find more detailed lists of what Pentax lenses are and aren't compatible with various Pentax DSLRs at Pentax's website, although you may have to dig a bit to find it.

I used it with Pentax K100D Super and it worked. It should work with any Pentax DSLR.

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.

Are you removing the front ring on the X100s lens first? The adapter fits in place of that ring, not over it.

I believe they will fit, however none of the auto functions such as focus, exposure, etc. will work. It might be best to take a couple of lenses into your local camera shop to see how and if they work.

Fits my K30 which yes is smaller but I don't think by a HUGE amount, will say lens space is pretty much set to 3 lenses, 200mm will fit unattached.

All Pentax K-mount lenses fit all Pentax K-mount cameras but not the ILC types, such as the Q10. See the link below:http://www.pentax.co.uk/en/Digital%20Mirrorless/K01.html

I don't know this BUT it fits to a NIKON D800 with 14-24mm 2.8 lens. Therefore a strongly assume that a Pentax K7 will also fit since this camera is smaller than the Nikpn D800.Regards Stephan

I was in same boat with 4 pentax lenses from my old K1000. I love my new K500, but so far none of my old lenses seem to work. All are full manual lenses, so it may depend on whether you have manual or auto lenses (have an A on aperture ring). Suggest going to Ricoh/Pentax website and download K500 owner manual. To be honest, the standard lens that comes with K500 does everything my old lenses did - and much more. Fantastic photos and gobs of features.

It should fit nicely with any K-series Pentax. I have the K-30 and they go together splendidly.

You'll need to find out the mount type of the lens. This lens was produced with two different mounts: K-mount and M42. This lens adapter works with the M42 only. It looks like a threaded bolt on the back of the lens where you actually have to screw the lens onto the camera similar to a lightbulb. The K-mount is a bayonet type mount similar to the EOS mount. A K1000 lens locks into place after 60 degrees of rotation or so. DPReview talking about the 2 mounts: http://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/22012925 Image of M42 mount type: http://www.tomioka.de/55mm-Dateien/hinterlinse_yashinon.jpg Image of K1000 mount type: http://static4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120401150827/camerapedia/images/a/af/Pentax_K1000_07.jpg For the K1000 to EOS adapter, I guess you'd need this adapter: http://www.amazon.com/Fotodiox-Adapter-Dandelion-Confirmation-Digital/dp/B003Y3EJMU/

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!

As long as your Ashahi lenzes have wat is known as the "K" mount it will work. The Nikon is not the issue, I would compare your lenz to that of the Pentax K1000. Hope that helps.

Absolutely! It will work with any Pentax K-Mount. It is unfortunate that Amazon has not corrected the misinformation. I am currently using on the K-01 with spectacular results.
