Nope i would rather get Pentax's Toy equivalent or a 110 lens on the respective adapter.

I think the 110 lenses would be great, couple in the market place atm too!

If you want some best to do so early, i think other Q users have discovered the 110 to Q adapter because i noticed the prices RISING

I still would prefer not using any adapters.

I have no Q and am not sure I will get one (as much as I want one) so no point me buying them, just pointing them out for everyone else

hmm... didnt think about the 110 lenses, I just just tried a d mount switar, really nice but lots vignetting and I'm not a fan of cropping every image I shoot with a lens. I'm probably gonna get this lens since I was not a fan of the pentax toy lenses (I own them both) and also since the skink pinhole failed me (beyond blurry images that make you dizzy when looking at them) def in the market for a dramatically artsy lens...

Have two of the A110 cameras and the 18, 24, and 50 lenses ( 2 sets of lenses). Haven't bought the adapter yet. It is on the list. Lol. Playing with the K-01 at the moment.
thanks

My experience with pinhole lenses is they are very soft. The smaller the format the softer they are. Many shoot them on 8x10" enlarging paper. Those shots look decent. Doesn't seem a good fit for the Q. Q would be very demanding of pinhole.
