Actually no. The Pentax stereo adapter is for taking stereo pictures (Two
pictures on each 35mm frame which can be viewed with the stereo viewer
after the film has been developed). You screw the stereo adapter to the
lens filter ring and start shooting :-)

It looks like a two-piece set. The first is a 'splitter' that fits on

Ulta Sonic Motor. Its where the AF motor is in the lens, and the body
uses electrical contacts to control it. It is usually much quieter and
faster than having the motor in the body and gears etc through to the

No problem - almost all lenses do that, especially longer lenses - focus beyond
infinity, to take care of the different heat expansion characteristics of the glasses
and barrel materials so that you get infinity focus whatever the temperature.
All the best!

Thanks Rob!
So does it mean, that I could try connecting 4 AA-cells to my PZ-1
without fearing that it will damage the camera circuitry? I had
seen this page earlier but would want to go ahead only if someone
tells me that I can't damage the camera by connecting incorrect
amperage to the camera.
