ed_yuen Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 <p>Another site: http://stans-photography.info/<br> includes reviews of some of the lenses as well. I think it has most of the ones produced by Pentax, if you're looking for aftermarket ones then I wouldn't know where to start. <br> Best of luck. <br> Ed</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melvin_tan3 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 <p>The pentax forum has a comprehensive list of most lenses and third-party ones as well. Look for the "Lens Database" sub-forum.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathan_rush Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 <p>I'm aware of Dimitrov's site. I was looking for a list of all manufacturers' k-mount lenses. The Pentax Forum list is pretty good, but I find hundreds of K-mount lenses on eBay that are not listed.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 <p>The number must be truly staggering. After counting the Pentax brand K-mounts and the those by the popular independents (Tamron, Soligor, Vivitar, Kiron, Tokina, various other makers) then we have those made by other camera makers that use(d) the K mount (Ricoh, for example) and finally, all the private label lenses (J.C. Penney, Sears, Quantarrey). Trying to list them all might be like trying to write out a Googleplex on piece of paper. Just the same, it would be interesting to see a list. Maybe start a thread and have each contributer add a lens (or lenses) not previously listed.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewg_ny Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 <p>I'd say that pentaxforums is off to a decent start and contributing there wouldn't be a bad idea. Another place to check is photodo.com.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
