How are you funding the genuine Pentax adapter, do the numbers on it relate to f-stops?

I have to assume funding is finding. It's a fine piece of kit. See below for the explanation of the aperture ring.

If you open too far on a bright lens the shutter exceeds its limit and the speed displays in red so at the moment with the 70mm today it was happy at 2.5

Funding/finding, clearly a Freudian slip!

At GBP150 it's not exactly cheap but it does the job and let's not forget it is chipped and not passive.

I order from the USA. As long as your total goods plus shipping charge is below AUS$1000 there is no import duty or tax.

I'll use this today and the 35mm (plastic mount) to see just what it's capable of.
