That is good news thank you. I agree with keeping these lenses small and less modern.

Peter, are all the contacts clean, both on the grip and camera and internal battery contacts. I found this was an issue with a K7.

Would a P30 fit the bill?

is there anything more complicated about the early 35/2?

Is there anything rattling in the lens ? It may be a loose element.

it may be worth using another PK/M42 adaptor just in case. The original Pentax version is preferable, at least in my experience.

The 18mm F11 looks like the inspiration for all the body cap lenses around today 😊

Nice composition and I like the colour palette. I wonder what it would be like in black and white.

I would look at eBay completed sale prices and maybe any second hand shop stock. Seems a fairly rare lens so may be difficult to price.

The 85 and 200mm arrived - well packed and the description was much more conservative than the actual condition. 😊 thank you
