That's not the question Ann had, though. My Olympus 4/3 lenses have a bayonet mount, and a red dot for positioning. I would not be at all surprised to find that there are other systems that also have red dots, so even though the Tokina 28-810 lens has a bayonet mount and a red dot there is no guarantee that it is, in fact, a K-mount. -- 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.
