Originally posted by tomwil Vintage lenses are being purchased and driving up prices, for the anticipated release of a Pentax FF camera.
I guess I am partially to blame, with 19 M42 lenses and roughly an equal number of K &M lenses I must be partially responsible for the shortage
But it is not just Pentax digital users (I have a full frame pentax already, 3 of them actually, a Ricoh XR2s, a pentax KX and a pentax PZ-1
,) and there are a lot of cannon users here on the forum, who use pentax lenses on the canon digital bodies, because the canon engineers decided that they could offer a shorter regestry distance and attract manual pentax and Nikon glass owners to their body with cheap Chinese adaptors
