lens on bridge camera

I just wanted to know if you can change the lens on the pentax KS2 bridge camera?
Also do you think its good for (starter) macro photography?

Welcome to the forum.

The K-S2 is a DSLR, not a bridge, so yes the lens can be changed.

As it's an interchangeable lens camera you have a good choice of macro (and other) k-mount lenses available.

Obviously macro is an interest. If you tell us more about your other photographic interests you'll get lots of advice and recommendations.

No reason why not, it has a moveable rear screen which is handy if you want to get down low, live view, takes remote shutter release and so on. More important for macro is a good lens, either a dedicated macro lens or one with extension tubes or a macro 'filter'. Also good lighting technique helps even if just using a reflector, there is lots of information out there as you have probably already found.

The KS-2 gets very high marks here:
