You will need electronic contacts for full aperture control and you don't specifically mention these.
Also, some tubes are finished in an insulating finish and the camera requires the bayonet to be an electrical contact. In this instance I have seen it suggested that scraping off a small part of the paint finish solves the problem.
Hope that helps!

It's still "sticky" so to speak, but somewhere, somebody will be beavering away trying to fix it.
It makes us realise how much we look to the internet and how wretched life could seem without it!

Surely you can't use mounting tissue on an inkjet or even a resin coated print?

The K-5 is a better upgrade without a doubt. I still happily use the K-5, which was a sea change in performance.
However, the K20D and K-7, using the same sensor as your K10D, will offer a useful jump in quality in many respects. I didn't upgrade to the K-7 but took the path K10D>K0D>K-5. The K20D is still in use and is still a fine camera.

I have a Hoya 77mm 81A filter.
If you send me a PM with your address I'll give you the payment details.

I use 3M Photo Mount (red can). Spray the back of the print, let the adhesive evaporate and then press down onto the board. Use a roller to firmly press the print down.
It's essential to use the red can spray and not the blue one as the latter will peel off, not being permanent.

Apologies for the delay, but the site's been unavailable for most of the day.
I have found two linear PL and one cross screen filter in 49mm.

I think I'll have to list these for you, so I'll try to do that later today. No larger star/cross yet, but I might have some ND if I delve deeper!

Incredible timing as well.
