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

Just be sure to buy PENTAX version. And yes, it fits with your K500 as well as other pentax cameras with K mount. For the price, this is the best choice. But, in my opinion, I prefer 55-300WR, more zoom and its weather sealed.

It seems to work with any Pentax camera that has an IR sensor. It works on my K-x (Until 1 of my daughters claimed it), K-r, K30, K3, WG-2 (before I broke this nearly unbreakable camera), and WG-4. Keep in mind that you have to use this remote, or any IR remote, within the camera IR sensor's field of view. (And yes, it will bounce off of walls the same as a TV remote will.) I mention this since most of the Pentax cameras, up until recently, had their IR sensors mounted on the front of the camera.

They have a division 633 17th St, Suite 2600, Denver Colorado, 80202 In the manual page 327 states the Warranty policy of 12 months any repairs to be returned to the dealer or manufacturer in your country. So If you buy it in the US it will be fixed in the US. That is my understanding . Their number is 800-877-0155. You could call and ask for more information. Love the camera I also bought a couple of pentax lens, one directly from them. Hi I purchase this camera this spring.

I have this lenses and it worked very good on my K500 PENTAX. Which is almost the same as the K50. This I hope is some help.

Pentax is built in Japan under license of Ricoh imaging Co. Ltd., which means that it is manufactured there but can be assembled in U.K., Germany, America, Canada, and yes, even China. Pentax lens's are unapproachable in quality and cost. I've had a Pentax film camera since 1960 and the new one I bought which is digital is equal in quality build and optics. If you buy, be sure and understand the manual from cover to cover. This camera is not built for a novice. Any camera you buy is only as good as the optics. Consider carefully what lenses you buy. This one will be a sure asset if your a serious photographer. Pentax is built in Japan under license of Ricoh imaging Co.

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.

I have never owned a Pentax K-r but it will work on any camera with a standard Pentax mount. If you have the standard kit lens (18-55mm) on the camera now then it will work for sure.

There isn't really an "old" or "new" model. There is the standard K-3, which is this one, and there is the Prestige model. There is no functional difference between them. The Prestige model has blacked-out lettering of the Pentax name on the front of the camera.

I am very happy with the Pentax K50, I bought it because it was in my budget. It works very well and has excellent performance. The K3 is better, faster and more resolution, but with the K50 have enough for what I want. If you have the money for the K3, buy, worth it.

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

I really do not know anything about the Pentax K30; but if it has a hotshoe I would think it would work. One note of caution. Don't leave the units hooked to your flash units. They seem to drain the batteries of power. Otherwise they work very well.

Yes it works with all Pentax "K" mount cameras. K-30, K-50, K3, K-5,5II,5s, K7 and so on. This is a great lens by the way.

I just purchased my Powershot S5IS from Bestbuy. I paid a few more bucks for it than getting it on-line. $369.95 on sale. Made in Japan baby. I looked at the box and it said made in Japan and I made the guy open the sealed box and checked on the camera. Made in Japan. Needless to say I didn't mind spending a few extra dollars to ease my mind a little. I purchased a Powershot SD1000 while I was there so I could have a portable pocket sized camera and it too was made in Japan.

I have used the old K1000 lenses (pentax 50mm lens it came with and an off brand telephoto) on my pentax k-3 with no issue. It is all manual, so I have to take a guess at metering, and of course no auto focus, but it works, it mounts and produces nice results. You will have to have knowledge of manual metering to produce the results you want.

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.

Yes all the DA Pentax and Promaster (Pentax mount) lenses work with the K-3
