Hi Fabrice,
Don't spend $50 for a pinhole for your k-mount. You can make one yourself.
Use an old body cap, drill a hole in it and mount a thin sheet of brass to
it (with your pinhole in the brass).
Or ... I used a pentax t-mount adapter to mount a pinhole. With a t-mount,

You can see a ring-like shape in the lens from the front.
My A-50/1.7 has one like that. As far as I can see from

That's 50/1.2, I bet!!

I don't see what's so hard about reading the letters. On my 17" monitor, I
CLEARLY can read that it's a 50/1.7 lens. No "if's ands or buts about it."
I think the seller forgot a comma also . . . and has the 50 confused with a
portrait lens . . . just my opinion on that one.
