Does anyone know if there is a ring flash out there that will work with my k10d thanks Steve

None that will work with p-ttl.
Pentax used to make one but its ttl and the k10d does not support that.
If youd be satisfied with Auto and Manual modes then I assume you can buy just about any.

Personally I wouldnt mind an ABR800 but thats for a different use

The sigma ringflash looks like a decent unit for macro.

As said above, Pentax made a couple ring flashes before, but both are TTL flashes which might not work well on K10D. You have to use them in manual mode.

AF140C

AF080C

Using the AF-080C will not damage the electronics of the K10D will it with too high voltage????

Hi,

My 10D is still working after using AF-080C. You can use it with Av, Tv or in manual mode, or in X-mode, or ...
