I don't know if it works with Pentax. I'm using mine on a Nikon D800. Yes it is made on Japan. Mine was used so I don't know about warranty. It is a great lens though

To cut to the chase on the K3 is like this: the K3 model is the BEST DSLR Pentax/Ricoh camera body made by them, bar none. The cost difference in between the K3 and the others is a moot subject compared to the large and small details that has been added. If I only one of the changes to pick as best, I would pick image resolution because no other Pentax DSLR can come close to the K3. To my judgment, the money was well spent for it. This camera makes your Pentax system 50% better instantly! I hope this helps your choice.

Hi max; The answer is YES. It comes with the PENTAX K500. I use Energizer ultimate lithium BATTERYS [AA] with this PENTAX D-BH109. I also use two LITHIUM rechargeable BATTERY D-Li109 and charger. They both work well with this camera. Hope you have fun with this camera as much as I do. also hope this was some help. have a nice day.

I believe this will work with your K-1. All pentax DSLR lenses should be universal.

No you can't. There is no "Other Brand" to "K Mount" adapter. "Other Brand" to "Screw Mount" maybe, but it won't work with a modern Pentax. You would have to find an "Other Brand" to "Screw Mount" (and I doubt they exist) then add a "Screw Mount" to "K Mount" but good luck taking pictures with it.

I do not have the K3 yet. It works for my K10D and my WG3 point and shoot I imagine it would for the K3. Do you have the K3? If so what do you think?

Yes, this lens is fully compatible with any Pentax K-mount camera (including film models) - especially the latest models such as a K-3. I have a K-5 and K-5SII and it works perfectly. Even though it's a 100 mm, it's my go-to lens for most every application (except for panoramic vistas - that's when I use my HD 15mm).

Mr Lee,The Pentax K mount has been around for decades and should fit the K10D if it is a true K mount camera. You will not be able to take advantage of the automatic features between the camera and the lens. I currently have a K10D but with all the new lenses and I am only speaking from a general familiarity of old technology lenses working on new tech products. I was primarily a Nikon owner for decades and still have lots of old AI lenses and film bodies. The new cameras will accept the old lenses but the automatic features are not functional. Suggestion, go to your local camera store and try out a few old lenses to see if they will fit.

Yes, it will work with a Pentax k500. It would work with any of the Pentax DSLR cameras.

Yes, the label on my camera says made in Japan. Lenses are usually a different story. Most newer Pentax lenses are designed in Japan but made in Vietnam. The lenses that are made in Vietnam aren't bad ... but there is a group of photographers online who believe the best Pentax lenses are the older ones made in Japan. The truth is that newer optical formulas and lens coatings are more important than the country where the lens is assembled. My "Japanese" Toyota is assembled in the USA but most people still identify it as a "Japanese" car. ;)

Hi, may be is a mistake, I have my Pentax K-3 with this lens works perfectly

I think it's compatible with all Pentax cameras with k-mount lens mounts. However it's not a very crisp lens, great for novelty shots, but that was all I found it useful for. I bought it for real estate and it was useless for that. I love the 12mm-24mm ultra wide though

I only have the k29 and k5, so I'm not sure. You might want to write to Pentax CO. Or look in your manual and see if the plug size and the opening for your bulb release are the same. Good luck!

I really dont have any regrets with my camera, and I think dxo mark gave it a better overall rating than the K-3. The only cAmera I would have probably waited for is a full frame Pentax but dont know when that would happen.

Yes. It works on the K30, followed by the K50, followed by the K500, which is what I have it on. That is the direct lineage of these entry level cameras from Pentax in the last few years.

I don't know but it should work unless Pentax have changed the IR design. I use it with my K5 and it works fine. No problems so far.
