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.

E mount. The lens is a 'c mount', so it comes with a 'c-nex adapter' which adapts it to your nex 'e mount'

All Pentax K-Mount lenses, Though you would need Pentax K AF for auto-focus capability.

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.

This is a Pentax K mount type lens. The Canon 500D is compatible with EF-S and EF lenses. There are several Pentax K PK Lens to Canon EOS EF adapters from different manufacturers for under $30. I cannot tell you the quality of these adapters, as I have not used adapters. The lens itself is one of my favourites.

It is a native "c" mount lens with a nex adapter. You need the adapter to make it work with your camera. These are fun gadget lens' and you can't go wrong in buying one.

Yes, i have so much fun to use all my old lenses (K mount) but first you need to get the right adapter for about $30. You better do some research on pentax forum. They have many tests on different lenses.

It depends on the mount. Please see the pictures and descriptions at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentax_K_mount - unless it is the ancient screw-type mount, it will connect. You may end up setting the focus and/or aperture manually, but that depends on which lens(es) you have, and their capabilities. This is a great little camera, and I recommend the new water resistant lenses from personal experience. Good luck!

This is odd, I bought my wife a K5 which came with this lens and a hood. It was ordered from Amazon. reading comments someone, somewhere was messed up badly.

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.

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.

The lens was included with mine -- and was represented in the ad I answered. I don't know the specifications. Mine also came with an operator's manual, but rather than giving specifications, it offers alternative thoughts on lenses depending on focal length (short focal length = greater brightness, for example). You might see if other offers for the ektagraphic give you more information. Sorry I can't be more specific.

Generally speaking, only Pentax lenses are compatible with Pentax cameras. However, if you want to use, say, Canon or Nikon or other lenses with a K50, you might be able to get an adapter that will allow them to be used with a K50. The K-mount is specific to Pentax, and other manufacturers use different mounts. Try a local camera shop or look online to Amazon or some of the national camera stores like Adorama or B&H; Photo.

It's an A-mount lens, so you'll need an A to E adapter. The lens is manual aperture and manual focus.

The camera ships with a 20-50mm kit lens. There are another dozen or so lenses available from Samsung directly, with more available from third parties.. I bought an adapter for mine, so that I can also use my old Nikon lenses on it.
