I am sorry I can't sat but it works great on my Nikon 3500D. I found they were great a answering the question on line. Please ask the seller .

It works perfectly with my Pentax K30, so it must also work with no problems with the K50 which is practically the same camera.

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.

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

No you can't. There is no "Other Brand" to "K Mount" adapter. "Other Brand" to "Screw Mount" maybe, but it won't work with a modern Pentax. You would have to find an "Other Brand" to "Screw Mount" (and I doubt they exist) then add a "Screw Mount" to "K Mount" but good luck taking pictures with it.

The Satechi WRT-C remote uses a 2.5mm TSR jack for the remote trigger. connection This unit, according to Satechi's website, is compatible with the Pentax K7 which has the 2.5mm TSR jack. I believe all the Pentax K series cameras use the same connector design for the remote trigger (2.5mm TSR jack) so this remote should work equally well with the K5 series camera. If there is still doubt the Satechi people are very helpful and can be reached at 858-268-1800 or by e-mail at support@satechi.com.Rick T

It is listed for Nikon, Canon, and Pentax so my first guess would be no. It uses a Hot Shoe type connector that you find on top of most SLR cameras. Does your camera have something like this? If not, then it will not work. If it does, it could possibly work.

Yes it works with all Pentax "K" mount cameras. K-30, K-50, K3, K-5,5II,5s, K7 and so on. This is a great lens by the way.

No, this is for Samsung DSLR which were re-branded Pentax DSLR. Or from the joint venture that was mostly Pentax design. That being said this would work with an adapter but you would lose autofocus etc and can only use in Aperture or manual mode

I am not sure ... Look in your K-30 manual under accessories . If it calls for a Pentax remote type F this remote WILL work .

I don't know but it should work unless Pentax have changed the IR design. I use it with my K5 and it works fine. No problems so far.

The shoe has contacts in a pattern made to fit a Nikon. I seriously doubt it will work on a Pentax. Besides, it was defective and I had to return it. Then I bought a Bower SFD14N. It won't fit your Pentax, either.

You lose auto focus and most auto exposure. I have an *istD and the focus indicator works when I manually focus old K-mount lenses. I had to make some changes in the menus to make this happen, your mileage may vary. Otherwise you'll essentially have a digital camera with stop down metering. The camera has no way of knowing what aperture the lens is at so you need to stop the lens down then let the camera set shutter speed. Again, you'll have to play with your menu settings. Look for Pentax forums on places like photo.net. I think auto white balance should be OK. I use a number of old K-mount and screw mount (with an adapter) lenses. I've had a problem with blurring of bright objects with one of them (a Pentax 1.4 50mm), sort of like a soft focus lens. The same lens is perfectly sharp in a film camera. I think the problem is light reflecting between the rear lens element and the photo sensor. Digital lenses have been designed to deal with this. Be careful if you buy a screw mount adapter, some won't allow infinity focus. Get the genuine Pentax item. It works properly and is easy to remove without using a tool.

I think it should work. I tried my pentax k 50mm 1.7 with this adapter on my t3i and had no prob. I only had problems using it on my 5d because the full frame mirror hits a tab on the lens.

Not too sure. Recommend you get the lens technical spec from the Pentax website.

Piece of cake. You need an m42(screw mount) to Pentax K mount adapter. Good one should be under $10.00. Brass is preferable.

Yes it will. The focus confirmation is 'okay' for photos. I ended up using live view to focus on still subjects with some of my older pentax lenses.
