but this isn't a 'Ricoh pin' problem is it?
That is what I thought.
Is it a Pentax K,Ka or Ricoh adaptor?

Where from John? And thanks Graham
I was given a selection A4 & A3 years ago. They were from a printers and I would say about the thickness of a business card.I had a quick look on ebay and there are several people selling it.
I found the best way to mount the print is to tape the top edge only then all of the sides of the backing board with a clearance of one cm all around. This method allows the print to move and not buckle.
Framing tape is the best but I have seen brown parcel,gaffer,sello and masking tapes used.

Some of the DPS members made it last night as we had cancelled our AGM. The city was was packed in all areas, but I got parked early at South Street near Durham School.
Here is a link to the DPS blog which I have just updated. LINK

This reflection moved to the left in three shots.

When I first noticed it I removed the filter but that made no difference.
I had the same problem with the 50mm but that is ok without the filter,I am using the same rubber lens hood on both lenses.
Despite this slight issue I am more than happy with this lens.
