I agree. Third-party adapters that add more glass to the mix . . . not for me. That seems a quick and easy recipe for degraded IQ. I think there's at least one such adapter for using Nikon F-mount lenses on Pentax, but buying a Nikon body seems so much wiser to me.
Fortunately, there are gazillions of m42 and K lenses out there for Pentax bodies. . . . :-)
