Hello, will the battery grip for Pentax K-7 fit my K-5? Best regards Lasse Myrdal Norway

Yes the grip is the same for both. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/634910-REG/Pentax_39846_D_BG4_Battery_Grip_f.html I have an after market clone and love it for my K-20. It doesn't work as well as the one from Pentax but for less frequent use I was shocked at how ergonomic it is. One negative I hadn't thought of was we now take pictures more in the horizontal mode for computer viewing, making the grip for vertical pictures less beneficial.

Yes it most certainly will work, and works like a dream too. The grip for both the K7 and k5 are the same.

If this is the one I bought, which Amazon says "yes", then I believe so. You will always be able to ship it back, free of charge if you purchase through Amazon. But I do love mine!!

Yes, the D-BG4 works on the K-7, K-5, K-5 II and K-r IIs. I also have a third party cheap battery grip which works on all the above. Still bought the D-BG4 for the quality of build and waterproof-ness.

Yes it will, it will work with the hot shoe mount on the top of the camera. It is not a flash so there is no communication between camera and light. It will be a constant light with its own off and on switch. There is no reason it shouldn't work as intended with a K-5.

I have a Canon 5D Mark II and the battery grip works very well. I am very pleased with it.

I really do not know anything about the Pentax K30; but if it has a hotshoe I would think it would work. One note of caution. Don't leave the units hooked to your flash units. They seem to drain the batteries of power. Otherwise they work very well.

HiI purchased a Sigma flash for a Pentax camera. Not too sure if the canon configuration will work on the k5 - I doubt very much it would.All the best

I believe the Pentax K-r has a standard hot shoe, so it should work. However, it is a manual flash so you will need to have a clue on how to balance the natural light with the flash and thus correctly set the shutter speed along with the aperture.

Think so. As you can see from the picture the lens needs to be offset to the left, which most (if not all) modern DSLR cameras with 50 - 55 mm lenses are. This fits my Pentax K-50 with a 18-55mm lens perfectly.

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 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!

Yes it does. Because the Wasabi batteries are based on the Pentax D-LI90, which also works for the Pentax D-BG5 Battery Grip for both models. Hope that helps, Aaron.

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.

Thank you for your time. In regards to your inquiry, the battery grip is not an OEM Nikon grip. As depicted in the listing, the grip is manufactured by XIT.

It should fit nicely with any K-series Pentax. I have the K-30 and they go together splendidly.

I don't have a k-r camera but I would think the 50-200 F4-5.6 would fit. Suggest you log onto pentaxforums.com You will definitely find the answer there. By the way I love this 50-200 lens on my Pentax K100D. It is a very fine lens and I even shoot flowers fairly close up with splendid resolution. And it is an excellent bargain for the price. It is made with ED glass and I get consistently good shots with it. Certainly a better lens than the 18-55 which I also own. Good luck, my friend. I think when my old K100d stops working I will definitely buy either a kx or kr Pentax camera. I don't have a k-r camera but I would think the 50-200 F4-5.6 would fit.

No, the Pentax Q uses D-L168 battery. The one you are looking at is the D-L190.

Pentax K series all have the same camera to lens fitting. I use a Kx series with my lens and also lens from a previously owned k1000Hope this helps

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!
