From your location I'd guess it's cold too. Warm batteries will work longer so keep a spare set in an inside pocket when you go out taking photos.
Have a look at these from Leroy Merlin.

If Carlsberg made reversed reversing ring adapters to fit ring flash lights to reversed lenses, they'd probably do a half decent job. Until then . . .

I have a reversing ring for a 49mm thread 50mm lens. What I want is the opposite. Instead of the ring being positive K bayonet to positive 49mm thread I want it to be K bayonet female to 49mm female so that I can put it on the end of my reversed lens and fit my Pentax 080 ring flash onto the front. Any ideas anyone on how to fit a 080 ring flash onto the end of a reversed 50mm K fit lens?. CHEERS Vic.
You could at least have the courtesy to acknowledge my thread here, though I appreciate the acknowledgement on the other forum.

The K Bayonet end looks OK but what is at the other end, it looks like a bevelled mount for something, possibly a ring flash of some sort.
Does that part unscrew to leave a female threaded part?
Also, it might be Pentax fit, but I doubt Pentax ever used 'sticky' labels to identify their products.

The Kodak is CCD, while they are great for photos they can do video and that's pretty much a must these days

I used a larger filter thread than you need. It might be sensible for you to do the same and use step down rings to get to 49mm.

You've asked the question, you've had a perfectly good answer from Ken.
You have less than 10 days now, buying studio flash should be based on a well considered decision, not panic.
I don't think your budget will buy you anything worth having so hire the kit for now, then buy something decent when you have more cash.
Or buy one of these at least. Add a Stofen Omnibounce and you're good to go.
