I have always struggled with macro shots on the Q, I wish they had released the 09 Macro lens but I think I may have found a solution for me. I tried the cheap Chinese extension tubes, however the working distance is way too close with any of the original Q lenses . Instead I have mounted the A series 28mm 2.8 lens in reverse on the original K-Q Pentax adapter. The working distance was a reasonable few inches and I think the final result is the best I have been able to obtain from the Q for macro.

How do you hold the lens baby disc in place please? I would like to experiment too as I have all of the "bits" you mentioned too :)

Yes the PTTL is supported and the internal camera flash does not fire

Yes that is correct, it connects on the right hand side of the adapter F and the cable connector is about 2cm long out to the right hand side, still usable just a little tricky to get to the on off button

I was playing with the QS1 and a corded off camera flash AF540FTZ. The cord comes out almost over the on/off button, however the shutter release button is still easy to reach. I tried double stacking the adapters to use 2 flashes, however both flashes were ignored in that configuration. It was fun zooming the 02 lens and looking at the flash zoom to the 5mm setting
