Hi all

My dad has given me several old lenses (I think they are pentax k mount) that he used to use on his old 35mm Ricoh film camera. Does anyone know if there is an adapter available so I can fit them to my canon 450D body. I realise that everything will be manual, but would like to give them a try.

Cheers
Mark
 
Yep, you can get 'em. Look on Ebay for something like this
 
Yes, you can get them, my father-in-law got one for an old Leica lens (300mm prime) and it is fully manual - He has had to set his camera to allow shutter release even when no lens detected - as there are no electrical contacts between the body and lens, but works well. :thumbs:
 
I use a 'K' mount 200mm prime on my EOS cameras without any problems, got adaptor from Ebay.


Dave.
