Can you let us know what it is like with the 110 lenses?
The Pentax 110 lenses were (are) very good, even wide open, as you may know there's no aperture in these lenses, I made an adapter for micro 4/3 that has slide in apertures the old fashioned way you may be interested in.

I'm working on a Q variation of this idea, but it won't be til after Christmas before I have something to show.
I don't mind working at f2.8, but this is a great idea.

For anybody verging on the brink of buying a Pentax Q there are some really good price drops at SRS, such as £99.00 for a spare body and the 5 - 15mm zoom at £129.00. Or buy them both together for £199.00

I hope this is allowed on this forum, but it is great news though I suspect they won't last long. Probably the last chance to buy the original Q.

All I need now is for the Q - K mount adapter's price to drop, I really need that shutter.

Looking forward to it. 42-105 f4 on digital - should make a good all round street lens on the Kr.

I also wanted a compact system, the Q is good and the price has drop. but how about the q10?
.

Not sure of the differences - I think better AF and not an all metal body. Otherwise very similar.
