Hi,

brought the lens from CEX being advised that it was a nikon fit, but it doesn't fit my D90 :'(

Anyone know anything about these lens and if there is an adaptor available?

Not too worried, got it for £20 and it came in a "old style" good quality lens case and has a hoya skylight filter fitted, so can use them, if the worst comes to the worse.

Would just be nice to mess about with the lens.

Cheers,

John
 
Could you take a photo of the mount, and I might be able to identify its real fitting...

Thanks for that :thumbs:

That ad seems a little confused. At the top it says "Pentax PK K Lens to Nikon AI AF F camera mount Adapter ", which is what you want. A little further down it says "Nikon Lens To pentax Mount Adapter". :thinking:

Well spotted :lol:

I should have re-phrased my comment earlier, adapters DO exist, but they have a cheap optical element inside which acts as a mild teleconverter. This slows the lens and reduces image quality in the sides and corners to the point where it's not worth adapting the lens in the first place ;)
 
Ahh well, looks like this is dead in the water :(

Couldn't be bothered with the hassle of getting a refund from CEX, so will be content with getting a nice lens case and hoya filter for £20.

Thanks to everyone for the informative replies :thumbs:
