Have you formatted the cards in the K-3? If not, that's the place to start. It is also possible to have incompatible or faulty cards.

If it's a CCTV lens then it might be 25mm screw thread, or C mount as it's known. A simple adapter will allow its use on the Pentax Q cameras, but it would be a bit small to be effective on any of the DSLRs.

I've tried some of these lenses on the Q and the results were just dreadful.

Good to hear from you and know all is well.

The SMC Pentax-M 85mm f/2 lens was never one of my favourites, I found the SMC Pentax-M 100mm f/2.8 to be much better. If you can get one of those, or the more expensive A version, then buy it like a shot. Lovely rendering.

SRB Griturn are the adapter experts, who make everything that can be made. You could give them a call and see what they can offer, or perhaps their website lists something appropriate.

Page 25 of the K-3 manual tells us that there is a custom setting for B mode

Quote:
7. Bulb (B) Mode Options Sets the camera operation when pressing the shutter release
button in M mode. Mode1

Mode 1 is the default, but perhaps one of the other modes is what you need?

A gorgeous shot of an architectural icon.

MX-1, daylight plus LED torch. The second shot rotates the subject and adds more specular highlights. All opinions welcome.
