DNA Software has tether plug-ins to make most Pentax cameras compatible with Adobe LightRoom 5.0 for $29.95. Works with Mac OS and Windows. Once it is downloaded it automatically installs into Lightroom. Works great with both my K-5 and K20D.

Does it work with the more recent cameras?

I quess it depends on just how recent: Pentax and Samsung Tethered Capture Plug-in for Lightroom - DNA Software
I don't see the K-50 or K-3 listed.

Here is the link: Sony, Konica Minolta, Pentax and Samsung Tethered Capture Plug-in for Lightroom - DNA Software DNA software seems to be several companies, so that is a red flag to me. They have a website but searching on DNA Software goes to a different company.

I emailed them to ask about support for k-3, k-3II and K-S1 & K-S2.

Looks to me it's basically PK_Tether with lightroom interfacing.

no Demo for Lightroom 6 ...
last Time i tested the demo on my mac was with LR5 ... and it didn't work!

Got this reply from them this morning:

Hello,

K-3 plug-in is not ready yet. We have only a took that could check the compatibility of the camera. Please let me know if you want to check it up. We have no information about k-s1 and k-s2 currently.

Thanks,
Dmitry
