You can with a $10 adapter, as long as the lens has an aperture ring. During my brief foray into the land of Canon digital I mostly shot with a Nikkor 20/2.8 on my 10D. In fact adapted lenses on Canon are slightly more functional than pre-A K mount lenses on Pentax (you get Av mode and TTL flash with adapted lenses on Canon). >You cannot mount a Pentax > lens on Nikon body, etc. So, if one is shooting Nikon system, the wonders of > K-5 are irrelevant.

And adapted lenses are preferred for video due to the inability of the camera to override your aperture selection. I actually know a few people who actively shoot professionally with _only_ adapted or converted lenses on Canon bodies. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
