It is also readily available for Pentax K mount as well. I suggest you contact SRB Film Services, who supply every conceivable adapter. Those they don't supply they can make for you.

If you put "Telescope adaptor pentax K" into google there are a few hits - including T-ring and adaptor tube on ebay - 'buy it now' for just under £20.
Put "T ring pentax" into Google and there are at least 10 good hits, covering several makers prices starting at £10.
As for extensions tubes the shop associated with the site comes up FIRST in the results of a google search for "pentax extension tubes" cost just £12, Kenko auto tubes from £121
Good luck

This relates to the topic of attachimg a telescope to a Pentax DSLR. I have to inform everyone that it appears that it is not possible to obtain a T Ring as no company seems to make them!! The one site that advertised such a ring had made a mistake in their description!!
If anyone knows where I can get one I would be most grateful. The poor support/availability for accessories such as this is a major drawback of the Pentax system. Another example of this was trying for 3 months to get a set of extension tubes, which I obtained only by sheer luck! The T ring is a basic and cheap item available for other systems!
Many thanks,

I got it from a "Vintage camera" accessories shop. But, as the K mount hasn't changed down the years, I'd say, far from a drawback, it is a selling point (IMHO)
Oh, My friend paid almost £30 for a T ring adapter for his Canon DSLR.Another plus for Pentax!
Getting there! Thanks to you guys
