Getting my feet wet

Hi, I'm Tim, and I just picked up a K-S1.

Already, I have a Takumar-A 70-200m lens, and I've got on order
  • Sears 50mm F1.7
  • 1 Silver INDUSTAR-50 3,5/50 M39 with M42 and K mount adapters
  • 1 Black INDUSTAR-50 3,5/50 M42 with adapter
  • Dustless Laser Drilled Pinhole Lens
But I'm not a huge spender... haven't yet spent more than $50 for a lens.

You will need a 39 > 42 adapter for the first INDUSTAR lens. I have not seen of one for quite a few years, but they were made in the late 1950's by Pentax among others. The Asahiflex was 39 mm mount, I seem to remember.

It's been included with the lens, thankfully
