Will this lens work with the K50? When I search for k50 lenses this is the first one that comes up but the little camera guide tool says "no" it won't

Not only will it work with the K50 it is a top choice. Lens is bright, has many depths of field, great image quality. This is a lens you won't outgrow and will go back to time and again.

I've been a Pentax shooter for over 30 years and one of the reasons is because all their lenses are compatible with all of their cameras - film and digital. If in doubt however, I would call them to confirm. Their customer support is really good.

Hi, thanks question. This lens is K Mount lens for K5 K7 K3 etc... Thanks in advance.

Just be sure to buy PENTAX version. And yes, it fits with your K500 as well as other pentax cameras with K mount. For the price, this is the best choice. But, in my opinion, I prefer 55-300WR, more zoom and its weather sealed.

Every Pentax SLR lens ever made can work on this camera. A very old screw mount lens would require an adapter; any bayonet mount SLR lens will mount and shoot easily on a K - 50 camera. If it was an automatic aperture lens, it will perform that way on a K 50. If it was an autofocus film lens, it will perform that way on a K 50.

Yes, should be, it's a standard Pentax "K-mount" lens with both an aperture ring and an Auto setting. I don't own a K-r, but it works nicely on my K-x, my K-30, and my old Pentax ME-Super film camera! It should work on pretty much any standard Pentax [D]SLR ever made. I think the "Q" and K01 (mirrorless) may be different though.

I upgraded from the K-5 to the K-3. Both are excellent cameras, but the K-3 is definitely superior. Regarding lenses - I have 30 year old Pentax lens that work on the K-3 (manual mode only) as well well as more recent Pentax and Sigma lenses that work in either manual or automatic modes.

I have this lens, it's very nice. I bought it for my Pentax K3 and recently started researching how to adapt it to a Pentax Q7 so I purchased a Pentax adapter K for Q. From what I read the adapters work but you will have to manually focus since there are no auto focus contact points on the adapters. I believe the same is true with all the less expensive adapters.

Works very well with a K3. Used it almost exclusively on a trip to Hawaii as a walk around lens and it performed well. https://www.flickr.com/photos/ted_beilby/sets/72157646102761802/ to see some of the shots.

Yes. This is a wonderfully sharp lens for ultra close up work. I use it on my K3 but it will work fine on your K30.

Yes this will work with the Pentax K-x. All the latest Pentax DSLR (except the 645D and Q series) use the same mount. So it will fit and function as it should (as well as Sigma programming allows). You may not have some of the exif info that you would have used a Pentax made lens but beyond that you shouldn't have any problems.

This lens works great with my K-3... Make sure that the lens and camera contacts are clean so that a positive connection is made.

The focus speed will greatly depend on your camera body. I have a K20D and it's a bit on the slow side as focus speed goes. On a newer camera body it could be better but I don't know. Perhaps someone with this lens and a newer camera body will respond to your question.

I know it will probably work with the K50 since it is the upgrade for my K30. I would suggest you Google pentax.com with this question. I have a feeling it probably will work but I don't want to lead you astray!

Well.... Guesing that you are looking for and M42 to K adapter for pentax, you can search here at amazon or outside, there are many. And the K5 is capable to use an M42 lens with the right adapter.

Is this lens compatible with my PENTAX K100D SLR? Will the auto focus work? Will I be able to use the scene function of my camera?
