As many of you know, the 3rd party lens data base was a project that took months of effort from a number of members and the Admin to create. It's looking pretty good.
Pentax Lens Review Database - Main Index PentaxForums.com Third-Party Pentax Lens Review Database - Main Index
I see all these "lens Club" threads and "off Brand" threads that have a large number of lenses not pictured or reviewed in the 3rd party database or the Takumar data base.
Our hope was to create the best Pentax resource section on the net. If you have a photo of a Pentax lens that is missing, You can attach a picture(s) of your lens to this thread, or put it in the gallery and send Adam or myself a Pm with the link to the lens. We'll update the Pentax section for you and then you can remove the lens photo from your gallery. If it's a 3rd party lens, you can upload a good quality image yourself directly or even create a new listing.
My contact info is:

And Adam's is here:

So a simple request. If you have a lens that's not pictured, added or reviewed (or want to add your $0.02), please help update the databases. We are still missing some Pentax lenses as well (see the list below).
Also for all the new members on the Forums, don't forget to keep the site advertising free and help Adam support the site with a small donation.
