Hello everybody,

Just thought I'd say hello. I've just got my first dslr camera (Pentax K20D) for my birthday, and am eager to get to grips with it. I have been looking at lenses but am a bit confused about what mountings are compatible, or backwards compatible. I've been looking at Hoya HMC 80-205mm f3.8 Macro Zoom Lens. Pentax K mount | eBay on ebay (Hoya HMC 80-205mm f3.8 Macro Zoom Lens. Pentax K mount), is this compatible with the kaf2 crippled mount on my K20D?

Being K mount, I believe it should work fine. I don't see it in the third party database, so I'm not sure.

I thought I edited this post to spilt out the lense topic to the appropriate section. Guess it didn't save >.<
