Large camera bag for sale. Very little use. Looking for £60 inc p/p which I think compares favourably with the full retail price elsewhere. PayPal gift, or Bank Transfer.
Images on request.

I bought a cheap 5 meter usb lead. used it with my K1 tethered into Lightroom with success..
Defeats the purpose of a cheap lusb ead if I need an expensive K-1 and don't use Lightroom

Thanks for all the suggestions. At present I'm using my K-70 to take images with a microscope and the tilting viewscreen prevents me having to look over the top of everything. The only snag is the remote control sensor is underneath as the camera is facedown and there is always the chane of me accidently nudging the other equipment. Don't really want to fork out another £45 for a wired remote using the two sec timer at present. I have a interval timer (3rd party) for my K-3 so perhaps will try that. At least Pentax have left the K interface alone the T2 fitting is interchangeable.

Doesn't do your adapters a lot of good though.
Have you tried it ? You're only supposed to blow the bleeding doors off. Oh, that was something to do with another problem

Thanks for the reminder Nigel, that us paupers with just the K-3 and older, have a handy little flash we can use

Stan you need to try an Extension Tube between the bellows and the camera.

I've got a couple of genuine Pentax adapters and a Chinese one. The Chinese one stinks of SOY SAUCE

I wish I was clever like you Algi, maybe an age thing so I have lots to learn I've got a set of extension tubes but no Soy Sauce. Will it work just as well with Lea and Perrins Worcestershire sauce.

I know this is an old thread but just had a "personal panic" with one of these adapters in trying to remove the bellows (ASAHI) managed to get a scalpel point into the slot to release the spring. As this outfit is for in house use I'll remove the spring and keep fingers crossed. Couldn't unscrew the bellows from the mount because of the protusion where the pop up flash goes

Thanks for all the info. What I'm wanting is to see a bigger image than the Live view on the camera. Remote control would be nice but not essential as I would be triggering the camera with the 2s timer set. Looked at the PK tether cable briefly but as it's cheap might just send for one
