£299 Is that what they are going for over there Closer to £500 over here.

Norwegian kippers, indeed! Sort of like German Spaghetti, or Spanish Haggis.

Sorry George, my knowledge and experience of all things Kipper is extremely limited, so thanks for putting me straight Clarky wrote:

Norwegian kippers? Good grief, man. The British Isles is home to the world's best kippers, and the best in the British Isles come from half a mile away.Only if they are of the Norwegian variety I hear they are quite tasty

Sorry shim, I do own the Pentax slide copier K but I have never used it, its sitting in its box in pristine condition. I don't have any slides to use with it i'm afraid.
At a guess, I would try the Pentax M 50mm Macro, but it may not be any different than the A version. ::
I wonder how the 77mm ltd will work with it :

What about using it on my DS with an M42 adapter and Takumar lenses. It won't auto focus I know, but it won't do any harm either, will it :George Lazarette wrote:

Because the lens cell is loose, I would have thought it would move about on a manual camera, also you would have to move the lens cell to the correct position before you put it on the camera.shim wrote:

It works fine on a manual camera. But obviously it doesn't focus for you.Note this is an Adapter not a Converter.... It won't work on
