Hi folks, do any of you know where an adapter to mount a pentax lens on a panasonic gh1 (mft) can be bought other than fleabay. Lens has aperture ring and will be left in manual focus so its really just a basic adapter i need.
My brother in-law wants to borrow my 100mm macro .
Hope you can help

Regards
Derek

Mmmm i do like the length of the 60-250 though, its wr,its a da* and instead of getting the da300mm i could get the new tc which would give me 350mm all in one lens with a greater range. as opposed to 50-135 and a 300mm, mmm spare cash towards new body, either k5iis or k3. Low light performance at the minute isn't a huge worry. It has certainly put the cat amongst the pigeons.

A DA* 2.8 60-250 would be great. and also very costly

Also well worth considering is the Sigma HSM 70-200 f2.8

Will probably go for the 60-250mm i do like the da*s

Funnily enough i was just looking at that and at the reviews, the image quality seems almost as good as the da* 300mm. Which i have owned and miss. would need to get rid of the 50-135.
AGGHHH no sleep for me tonight again now while i fumble and fudge about what to get

Looking at your list of lenses, you are going to need to be fairly close to the action if the DA* 50-135mm lens is the longest focal length you have.

I typically use a Pentax DA* 60-250mm, Sigma 70-200m, or a Sigma 150-500mm.
Im hoping to buy back the da* 300mm that i sold a while ago before race day.
