I bought a Tamron 28-80 adaptall2 lens in 1984 with the PK mount. A year or three later I upgraded to the PK-A mount and used it on that lens until three or four years ago. That mount is now on a 17mm adaptall2 lens that I bought off of another list member. I have never had any trouble with it whatsoever, it is dead reliable. The chrome plating is wearing off of the mount itself but it continues to perform as good as the day I bought it. -- Steve Sharpe [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://earth.delith.com/photo_gallery.html -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
