35mm f2.4 does not need an adapter for K30 and doesn't doesn't come with a lens cap.I recommend the metal leens hood that costs about $8.00. I use that to protect the lens and I also have a uv filter screwed ontothe lens cap but probably not necessary. I absolutely love this lens. This lens and the DA55-300 are superb matches to the K30. You will be blessed with a great photo setup with these three items. The 35mm works for me as a wide angle so it is great to shoot photos in your living room or even landscapes. I got some really nice fall foliage shots with the 35mm. Freddy

Every Pentax lens I know of come with both a lens and rear caps. Any K-mount (which this one is) lens will fit any modern Pentax body. The K30, being one of the more modern ones fits the requirement. The K30 (and any other Pentax camera with a K-mount, will take all Pentax screw mount lenses with an adapter. This opens the field to any lens that Pentax has ever built to use with these cameras.

Yes it does. (For both questions) this lens fits any k-mount from pentax so pretty much all of their DSLR.

Yes it comes with a lens cap and yes it fits on a K-30. All k mounts lens fit on a K-30 or any other Pentax SLR. It does not come with a lens hood but does come with a lens cap.

All Pentax K mount and third party Pentax K mounts. There are many third party lens manufactures. I recommend visiting www.pentaxforums.com Go to the Lenses tab and read the reviews. You can also post a specific question on the forum. There are many helpful members there to answer your questions.

Yes, the *ist takes K-Mount. An advantage-if you still have lenses for old Pentax film cameras-is that you can use them on the digital Pentaxes. Besides Pentax lenses, other makes with K-mount will fit.

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

You need to be very careful about your lens mount. The wrong one could destroy the contacts for your automatic lenses. This converts the Pentax K-mount to the Nikon F-mount and makes your camera a manual operation only. There are no auto features to the Pentax lens with the adaptor.

Mr Lee,The Pentax K mount has been around for decades and should fit the K10D if it is a true K mount camera. You will not be able to take advantage of the automatic features between the camera and the lens. I currently have a K10D but with all the new lenses and I am only speaking from a general familiarity of old technology lenses working on new tech products. I was primarily a Nikon owner for decades and still have lots of old AI lenses and film bodies. The new cameras will accept the old lenses but the automatic features are not functional. Suggestion, go to your local camera store and try out a few old lenses to see if they will fit.

It also says it will not work with K-7 or K-5ii. This is a newer lens made for today's Pentax and Ricoh DSLR's. I wouldn't trust the assistant. Go to the Pentax site to determine if it will fit. I believe we can trust those who responded here.

Hi Edwin, Yes it does come with a lens cap, and it is a great camera. I guess to Nikon it was a given.Cass

Any Pentax EVER MADE will work with this camera. The screw mount lenses need an adapter. This goes for old lenses made for the K1000. I know, because I use them!

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.

Hi. I gave it as a gift some time ago and the person who received the gift does not remember. I don't think they do, but, if I remember correctly they do come with small cap covers for each lens. You should double check this. ☺ information.

I bought and returned lens years ago and moved on to a Nkion system. I had problems with the lens back-focusing on the K10 which had no way of adjusting the focus in camera, so be aware of this issue depending on which body you have. As I recall, the lens was new in Pentax box with warranty. I would check the return policy just in case.
