Will my Pentax ME lenses work with this iteration?

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.

I believe Eye Fi works with any camera. Eye Fi sync's data on the card to the cloud, so it isn't an issue with the Pentax. I would confirm that with the Eye you buy, but that's what I understand.

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.

Yes, but you will need an adapter (sold by Pentax) to convert the screw on lenses to the bayonet type. The older bayonet types work fine. When using the screw on lenses (with the adapter), you must use manual mode on the camera (no automatic focusing or aperature control).

Yes. To help you in the future, you have an "eos" , mount for your lenses. Anything that says eos mount will work.

I didn't know olympus made a ME Super? I know Pentax does. If your lenses are olympus mount 4/3 type digital lenses you should be good to go. Is the Me a manual film camera?

Yes it will, with the caveat of course that your lenses were made before the days of autofocus and auto aperture,so of course those options won't be available. Just be sure to enable the "use aperture ring" option in the menus first.

It works perfectly with the *ist DL. I have the same Pentax camera and just got this lens. It has great performance and has produced some great shots for me. Here's more info from Sigma's site... http://www.sigmaphoto.com/lenses/lenses_all_details.asp?id=3303&navigator=3

Hi, may be is a mistake, I have my Pentax K-3 with this lens works perfectly

Yes. The beauty of Pentax DSLR's is that they will accept all K-mount Pentax lenses ever produced. I myself have a 25 year old manual focus 50mm M f/1.4 lens I use on this camera.

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

no, I'm sorry I purchased this lens for the Pentax D10. It is flawless on this camera.

Not sure why Amazon says it won't work. It will work, no question. Ive owned many Pentax bodies and lenses, and I'm sure it will work perfectly.

I didn't, but there is no reason not to work on K50. All Pentax lenses fit on all Pentax cameras. I use it on K20 K5 and K5II - very sharp lens. It allow you to focus manual with-out to switch, and then it do the rest automatically.

Hello, kkiriluk. I'm sorry to say that I can't verify that the Sigma lens works with Pentax cameras. I have a Nikon D40x and it works splendidly. It is the best lens I have purchased for it. Best of luck finding a fellow Pentax owner who has used it.

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