crazy stuff. Nikon cameras confuse me; every time I've ever held one I couldn't figure out where various buttons were, and if I did find them, I couldn't understand the logic behind their placement. They get my hands all contorted and my brain much more muddled than usual. I feel bad for my friend, who's stuck with the starter lens, which doesn't really compare to the lenses for his Pentax camera. >The K to F mount adapter I heard of had a female Pentax Mount with a male >Nikon mount right behind it. You will lose infinity focus if you use this device I don't think he needs that. At what distance do you suppose focus would be lost? rg2 On 9/9/07, Cotty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 08/09/07, Rebekah, discombobulated, unleashed: > > >ok, don't shoot me, but does anyone know if there's an adaptor that > >will enable pentax k-mount lenses to fit on a digital f-mount nikon > >camera? > > > >I swear, a friend is the one who wants to know! > > The only way to do it would be to have a mount custom made.
