There is an adapter now in the market, available via ebay. Was tempted to buy one some time back, but not sure of the quality due to the correction glass in the adapter.

If any of you ever try one, do provide feedback.

Wahaha ! I know Birder got some valuable 'Adaptors' with him ! :cheer:

But is it worth using other brand's Lenses on A Mount or not ? I bet A Mount surely got more than enough good Lenses to use .

i've got an old yashica pentax 55mm lens - is it the same? let me know if you want to borrow it to test your adaptor. the lens has fungus though, from my dad's old collection.

Thanks bro, but no.

I have the adapters for Olympus, Nikon Ai and Canon FD to A-mount. Just that I do not have the lenses to try on. Also have the M42, m39, T-mount.

I do not have the pentax-k adapter.

There are others like hasseblad, pentacon-6 to a-mount and many others as well which I do not intend to get haha..

Umm.. now I shooting birds on MF liao.. haha.. More so with digiscope haha..

With tele lens, MF is possible and easier, since subject is blown up.... but wide lens a bit difficult unless you have really 6/6 perfect eyes like Willis..
