Aha!

I didn't realise the 75-200 had an adapter on the end of it!

I've just taken it off, I'm gonna try the others out now.

Thank you

Apologies for the double post.

Is there an adapter or something similar I can buy to allow me to use the other lenses?

I've got (all are tamron)


SP 2X Tele-Converter
SP 35-80mm F/2.8-3.8
SP 17mm F/3.5
SP 24-48mm F/3.5-3.8

There's also Nikon Dw-3 and Dw-4 flash units...

I'm not sure what brand the lenses were for originally. I'm guessing nikon as most of the other stuff is nikon, but I could be wrong.

Can anyone shed some light?

Oooh! Thankyou. That's brilliant.

Thanks a lot

Hi all! I recently bought a K10D, and shortly after was given a load of old lenses by my dad, who'd had them in his attic for years. This is my first SLR so I'm a bit of a newb really...

Most of them are nikon lenses, but there's a tamron one (the one in the title) which fits my camera.

It specifically states it's for pentax k camera, and it attaches fine, but when I try and take a picture it refuses to focus properly. I can play around and get the image into focus, but the aperture seems all wrong as it's a telephoto lens and the foreground is really blurry, rather than the other way around...

When I look through the viewfinder, I can see "F --" flashing, as well as on the LCD display on the top of the camera.

If anyone could offer any advice I'd be most grateful... I'd really like to be able to use it. Would I need to buy an adapter or something, or am I just missing something glaringly obvious?

Thanks a lot in advance.

I just tried firing my k10d with the remote for my sony stereo (LBT-Xb50). The "flash" button on the remote fired it.

Also, the Playstation2 DVD remote control works, if you press the "display" button.

Currently trying to work out if I can my phone to do it!
