Hi guys
Odd dilemma here...
I have an M42 bellows and slide copier I want to use to 'scan' with DSLR my 35mm film.
ok
My macro lens is the k-Mount M50mm F4
Is there some way I can put this, or another k-Mount macro lens (the M100mm macro is cheaper than the m42 version as it is less flexible for people to use on other mounts) on the bellows?
Thanks for any helpful pointers

Hi all
My FA 50mm 1.4 is suddenly acting up — the turning of the focus blocks at about the 3 metre point.
I can turn it past my hand then it moves normally for the rest of the way till infinity is reached.
If I turn the lens around at certain angles (basically upside down) the blocking doesn't happen.
So something seems to be falling in the way and when gravity is pulling in a different direction, it doesn't get in the way.
Problem: I like the lens and would like to fix it, buuuuuut obviously if the cost of repair is too high it makes no sense and maybe I should buy another one if I can find an ok price.
I would prefer to repair and keep my lens, so how and where could I do that for a reasonable price?
I live in Brussels, Belgium and i suppose can ship the lens a reasonable distance, basically till shipping costs make the repair uneconomical.
Any suggestions?
Any help would be sincerely appreciated
Ian

K200d, partially damaged Asking Price
Best offer + shipping Item Description
I have a k200d that had an accident changing the focussing screen.
Now the screen harness thingy has come loose and the pentamirror is scratched
I replaced the camera with another, and just want to recoup some of my losses if possible
this is for someone who knows how to fix it, figures the cost of fixing it works out or wants one for parts.
Otherwise it's in perfect working order.
I'll throw in 2 sets of eneloops (one set never used,), charger, and a 4gb sd card, all the packaging it came with and so forth, the original focussing screen and the replacement one from focussingscreen.com

Hello all
I've been using Pentax for years – I love my old k1000. My P&S just died so I'm finally looking to pull the trigger on a dslr.
I look forward to posting here as I learn my way around it.
I'm looking at getting a k10d, k200d, or a k100d, depending on the deal I can get.
Please feel free to let me know if you have any pointers/offers in this regard.
I'd particularly like to be able to do a deal with someone living around my part of the world – but I don't know if that'll be possible.
Thanks and greetings to all
Ian
