If I was screaming for a mirrorless camera, I'd go buy one from another company already. And use my Pentax lenses on it, which I do in the rare event I need what mirrorless offers.

The reason I got a Pentax K-adaptor for my Fuji XE-2 was to add shift capability to my full frame FA and F lenses. Try it, it works great!

The only camera available with "articulating viewfinders are some Panasonic GX models. You should be talking about articulating viewscreens.

The link, please- that term doesn't match with anything in B&H's inventory.

My adaptor is a Kipon. It seems very well made, with smooth movements and no slack. B&H shows many TS adaptors to fit Pentax medium format lenses to various bodies, but not to the Pentax K mount. ...

I can't help you with tilts, but for shifts I use my regular Pentax lenses on a Fuji mirrorless camera, via a shift adapter. My ultrawide, a Sigma EX 12-24, has manual aperture settings, so it ...

My last Panny was an LX7, so I'm unaware of this. I'm considering using something like a G8 or GX 85 for real estate videos. This shouldn't require the finest lens, but I do expect good straight ...

I used to favor my Nikormat over the F because the cheaper camera had the faster flash sync speed, by a whole stop. The shutter speed ring on the lens mount worked wonderfully. It was stiff enough...

This a fun lens to throw in your pants pocket on a stroll. You can't say that about many other FF xx-200 zooms, can you? If there are any others, they surely aren't internal zooms, like this. I'd ...

I love me some Pentaxes, but the Pentax 18-55 kit lens wasn't worth keeping. And there's a big difference between 28mm and 24mm equivalents at the wide end.

The Fuji XC 15-45 is an excellent lens sharp out to the corners. I tested it against the GRII's wide converter, which is also a gem, and corner sharpness was equivalent. Cheap, small and ...

Alternatively, the D-FA 28-105 isn't that much bigger and it's sharp at all points, all apertures and all focal lengths, even before you crop away the edges. The wide end can be replaced with a 15 ...

I still love my Pentax, but this lens, not so much. It's a full pound heavier than the DA* 50-135 f/2.8, and longer, with similar features. Not being a heavy tele user, I'd prefer the smaller,...

Of all my old Minolta lenses, I miss the Beercan the most.

Yes, you can fly above a 300-meter sand dune. Posted limits are listed as AGL (Above Ground Level,) so just keep your drone under whatever 100- to 150-meter limit applies above the surface and you...

What a sloppy, random presentation, DPR! There are three consecutive photos of the same pedestrian walkway and skyline, for instance. The three lenses results are all jumbled together. There's only...

Will this flash know not to aim a bounce at a dark-colored wall, or a window, or worse, a mirror?

So what it it was? A lot of perfectly good photos were taken in 2008, with even older gear.

A hybrid OVF/EVF DSLR would be a unique and very appealing package. I loved that in the X-Pro 1, but its OVF was partially obstructed by the lens. A hybrid DSLR would solve that problem, but you'd...

The weight and bulk benefits of mirrorless are substantial when you go FF or beyond- just compare the Pentax 645D to the recent Fuji and Hassy offerings. But when you're talking APS-C cameras, the...
