Hello, I have a Pentax K200D with a TAMRON Di II AF, can I use this lens with this K-5 II ??

Yes it will. I even have old K-Mount lenses from my old 35mm Pentax Super Program and they work beautifully on my K5.

I am no authority on lens mounts. It seems that if the K22D is a k-mount then it should fit your K-511.

Does anyone know if a Sigma DL MACRO lens that was used on a Nikon N70 can be used on the Pentax K-7? If so, how?

Yes, my old K-mount lenses work fine with my K-50. However, you'll have to experiment with exposure settings and manually set the f-stop and shutter speeds (plus manual focus of course). But it's a great advantage if you already have some old high-quality lenses in your kit.

yes, this will adapt pentax k mount lens to the canon t2i however auto focus and exposure will not work- must be used as a manual camera

Bill, I have a K20D also and tried this lens on it - the distortion was apparent at 18mm indoors.. I only tried the lens on the camera.. never used it as I did not get all the proper paperwork nor a lens shield with it... so I returned it the next day to Amazon for a full refund.. only because of the seller.. not the lens itself.. I'd also say.. read as many reviews on it as possible before buying..

The lens should be available for use with any Pentax DSLR.It's a basic 35mm K-mount, bayonet, lens.

As others have said, it'll work. Be aware, though, that the K200D's image sensor area is smaller than the 35mm film area. The apparent focal length is 1.5 times the 35mm focal length. This means a 12mm lens will appear like an 18mm lens.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crop_factor

Other than I know that all Pentax lenses are supposed to work with any of their bayonet mounts I don't know. I know it worked with my K100 digital. To my great delight, I can use my OLD Pentax lenses that aren't digital with my digital Pentax--they just don't read what the computer part is saying in the camera. I have gotten excellent photos using non-digital and digital lenses with my digital Pentax.

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.

I have this lens and it works with my Nikon D200 just fine. If your worried, make sure you can return it.

I can only answer for a Canon EOS1100 D. If the two Canon models are lens compatible then there should be no worries with Pentax K1000 lenses.

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.

Well.... technically yes. After all, "Pentax claims that all their auto-focus cameras are backward compatible with K-mount lenses dating back as far as 1975 without need for an adapter." But there are major trade offs. The camera cannot read the set f-stop of K and M series lens. You won't be able to take advantage of the autofocus options. You may need to manually set aperture. You'll have to compensate for the smaller digital chip size as compared to 35mm film. But technically the lens is will work. You'll likely get better results from upgrading to a lens designed for use with the digital camera. The K-5 II does offer full manual control options that will let it resemble the Pentax ME. Well... except for maybe the film advance lever and rewind crank.

Sorry, I don't know if they make a model of this lens for the Pentax K-500!

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.

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.

Hi Ben, I just ordered this camera, but currently have the k100d. I did use an older lens with my k100d a while back and I had to press the a/e button for about a second to get it to stop down, the camera won't know what the aperature is set at, but it is still usable. I find dpreview.com is really helpful for those sort of questions. Just type in your query in the 'search' area and any discussion about it will come up. Good luck.
