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.

The lens "does" work on a K30. I used the lens on my K30 for years. I have no idea why Amazon says otherwise.

Claudia, while I am not personally familiar with the K-30, I do know that all Pentax K-mount lenses are physically compatible with all k-mount cameras, including the K-30. Some combinations of camera and lens may result in limitations in metering or such functions, but this lens is fully compatible with this model.

It fits in a standard hot shoe mount, so I'm thinking yes (I haven't personally ever inspected the hot shoe mount on a K-r... but I think Pentax uses a standard hot shoe on that model)

It will if it's a k mount. Some earlier Pentax lenses were screw mounts and you would need an adaptor for one of those.

It will work with any Pentax K mount lense. So you should be good. It's a great lense, I love mine.

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!

It should I mounted it on my Pentax K-x and my sister is currently using it on her Pentax K-r

I see no reason why it shouldn't because the k50 and k30 are Pentax dslrs that come with the DA 18-55 mm lens which has the same mount.

It works fine in my K-30. As far as I know the K-30 and the K-50 are very similar in their hardware, but better check if maybe you will need an adapter.

I have never owned a Pentax K-r but it will work on any camera with a standard Pentax mount. If you have the standard kit lens (18-55mm) on the camera now then it will work for sure.

Pentax Forums.com has a database of every Pentax lens ever made and the interchangeability range. Basically, all Pentax K mount will work on any modern Pentax body. Older Pentax lenses may require an available adapter. I am not familiar with Kx, but I believe any lens that worked on Kx will fit a K-30 without an adaptor. Older lenses were A or M mount. Still useable on a K-30 but perhaps without Auto Focus, so you would have to manually focus.

I don't have a K3 (sadly), but I do know that this lens is fully compatible with my K5 and K5IIs. Therefore, I am confident that it is fully compatible with your K3. Pentax seems to be a company that avoids incompatibilities between cameras and lenses. I have often wondered where this advice came from - no idea, but I believe it to be either incorrect or based on criteria of which most of us are unaware.

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

Yes, that's what it's designed for. In fact, although the K30 will accept a certain rectangular shaped Li-ion battery, it turns out w/the right choice of rechargeable Metal Hydride (M-H) batteries for this housing, your power storage is significantly greater. Why Pentax didn't include it w/your K30 purchase, you'll have to ask them. I suspect it has to do with $.

It should work with any K-mount. I don't know what the magnification factor would be on the K-30, but you can find that in your manual. Works like a charm on my K-01.
