Seems to me that posting only images taken only with
both Pentax bodies and lenses is too restrictive.
To judge from the responses to this subject, I'm not
the only one who very often uses non-Pentax lenses
(and filters and flashes, camera straps and lens
hoods). I've taken many of my favorite p

I have a silly question.
If the guidelines, in place for at least a couple of years, stated that
Themed submissions required Pentax lens or body and Open could be any K or
M42, why is there even a problem? A submission that didn't meet the existing
