Pentax Lens Compatiblity

holter · 09-14-2010, 02:16 PM

Well, I'm not yet a newby in DSLR but I'm investigating about the compatibility of these manual lenses:
- Vivitar 28-200 K baionet native
- Pentax 28-75 AF with native K baionet
- Tamron 500SP + K adaptal-2

with K-20D, K-10D or K- x/m camera.

Just to be sure (I am afraid it's trivial but...) the thing told about the original Pentax K lenses applies 1:1 to the above listed manual lenses ?

Thanx
