Suppose the K-01 was the nearest - APS-C and a DA 21 could certainly be used. It could never be completely slim-line due to the lens to sensor distance requirement. I’m really putting my Pentaxian nerd credentials on full display with this one, but I think when the K-01 was first displayed they had...

Pentax DA* 16-50 with SDM failure
After upgrading to the K1 (mk1) I have not used my 16-50 for a little over 12 months. However went to use it yesterday on my K3ii, and it has fallen foul of the SDM gremlin. As I do not have a Pentax older than my K3ii, in order for me to convert to screwdrive, and to be honest I haven't really used...

Pentax DA* 16-50 with SDM failure
Before you say they SDM is dead, have you tried "waking up" the SDM by connecting it to the camera and manually moving the focus ring back and forth?

Before you say they SDM is dead, have you tried "waking up" the SDM by connecting it to the camera and manually moving the focus ring back and forth? A better way to try and wake it up is by operating the screwdrive mech. ;)

FS Pentax K-70
Hi, I am considering selling my beloved Pentax K-70. I originally bought it in 2017 and is in great condition. Please note, the focus screen (not the sensor) has SLIGHT smudges and dust in some areas. It can probably be easily cleaned or replaced. Also, there is ONE dead pixel in the LC...

FS: 100mm F3.5 FA Macro lens.
An often overlooked lens. There are plenty of reviews and comments on the PF site about the lens. I understand these were made by Cosina for Pentac and it is almost identical to the version they did in several mounts. The "downsides". It only goes to 1:2 and not lifesize as does the 2.8 lens. The...

WTB: Sigma 20-40mm f2.8
I recently picked up a used Tamron 17-50. I wouldn't say the build quality is at all bad, given the price. For what I paid for it, I could wear out half a dozen for the cost of a used DA 16-50 :D Screw drive AF doesn't bother me - it seems damned fast on my K3, and I know the SDM won't fail... M...
