yes, fotasy is one of the good adapters, it should work fine without modifications.

Here's a test shot with NX300 and the old 55mm f1.4, stopped down to f2 or something close. It's a bit soft wide open

bancika...I need to pick your brain again. It's kind of hard to find the old school lenses or I just don't know what websites to look at, but I came across a Vintage f/2.8 135mm Prime Tele Lens w/Macro Pentax K by zikkor for $50.00 . Do you have experience with this brand or lens? and would this be equivalent to a 85mm on the nx300?

Thanks,

Unless you are well versed in legacy lens, stay away from unknown brands like Zikkor.

Minolta, Vivitar, Canon FD mount is relatively cheap and good quality.
