Yes you can use it on all Pentax DSLRs including the upcoming Pentax K-3. Have fun.

It's a DA (made for digital) lens. I have used it on the K20, Kr, K5, and K30. It is a great lens, in my opinion, and has endured the test of time.

Other than I know that all Pentax lenses are supposed to work with any of their bayonet mounts I don't know. I know it worked with my K100 digital. To my great delight, I can use my OLD Pentax lenses that aren't digital with my digital Pentax--they just don't read what the computer part is saying in the camera. I have gotten excellent photos using non-digital and digital lenses with my digital Pentax.

Yes. M mount lens ( 1970's etc ) can be made to fit with an M to K adapter. The K5's are all K mounts. All D DA and DA* lens are made to fit perfectly with APS C chip.The M lens were obviously made to fit 35 mm film since that's all we had back then. You won't have any of the digital functions since there is no way to make contact with the mount sensors. It forces you to shoot manual. Other than that minor issue, Pentax glass is still considered some of the best glass ever made.

The lens "does" work on a K30. I used the lens on my K30 for years. I have no idea why Amazon says otherwise.

You should be able to get any kind of C-mount or adaptor ring for you Pentax. I had to buy one for my Nikon so this lens would fit. The only thing is it is a fully manual lens so you need to put your camera to manual due to it not recognizing that there is a lens even attached... this is a fun lens to use though. Amazing photos of the moon.

Pentax Forums.com has a database of every Pentax lens ever made and the interchangeability range. Basically, all Pentax K mount will work on any modern Pentax body. Older Pentax lenses may require an available adapter. I am not familiar with Kx, but I believe any lens that worked on Kx will fit a K-30 without an adaptor. Older lenses were A or M mount. Still useable on a K-30 but perhaps without Auto Focus, so you would have to manually focus.

Hi, may be is a mistake, I have my Pentax K-3 with this lens works perfectly

Yes it will. The K30, like all of Pentax's digital cameras, will accept any K-mount (bayonet) lens. Just be aware that older lenses may require manual exposure.

I believe this will work with your K-1. All pentax DSLR lenses should be universal.

Not too sure. Recommend you get the lens technical spec from the Pentax website.

Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 for Pentax (K-mount) will work with a K-50. Set the aperture ring to A and you can set the aperture from the camera. It is a manual focus lens no matter what camera it is used on.

Larry, I've seen reviews that have said Sigma And Tamron lenses work well on the Pentax body. As long as you have the correct lens mount - I think its called a Bayonet Mount, so it should fit the camera. I think the information offered by Pentax Indicated all their lenses would work on the K20d, even a screw mount lens if you have an adaptoor. The Older Manual Pentax lenses will work but some features may be lost when photographing. For example If your using a Pentax SMC - M lens there will be no digital read out for the lens opening on the camera's LED screens and some of the lens information won't be stored with the photo's properties. With an M lens I think you are restricted to be able to only use a few of the camera modes like Manual and Bulb. I haven't read enough of the manual to fully understand it all. I mainly shoot in Manual while using the Pentax SMC-M lens. Pentax SMC-A Lenses will work in in all modes, I believe. If your using a manual Pentax SMC-A lens and have the apperature ring set on "A" then the camera wil record the correct lens information when the camera's shutter is tripped, it will also display the info in the camera's digital readout.. Any of the Pentax Bayonet Mount lenses that say they are for the DSLR will fit the camera. I have the Pentax SMC DA18-250mm, the 10-17mm Fish Eye and the 12-24nn Wide Angle. All are wonderful lenses. I have manual lenses That I used in the 1990's on my Pentax K1000 that I occassionally use on my K20D, They include a 150mm M Lens, 28mm A Lens, a 50mm A and M lens and a Tamron 250mm zoom lens. The 50mm has a lens opening of 1.7 Good Luck, Moose

Yes, i have so much fun to use all my old lenses (K mount) but first you need to get the right adapter for about $30. You better do some research on pentax forum. They have many tests on different lenses.
