Do you think Panasonic will implement 8k video in the upcoming GH6 camera?

Will it have a new organic sensor with more dynamic range?

What about Sony? Will they release a 8k mirrorless?

What will be the future of Sony Sensors?

It seems Nikon is entering the mirrorless full frame game. What to expect?

Adapter for ZENITH HELIOS Prime lens

club_irate — Fri, 19 Jul 2013 07:00:10 +0000

I am thinking of going for a Pentax K mount ZENITH HELIOS 58 mm F 2 Prime Lens. I wanted to know if either of these adapters can help me strap on these lenses on my GH2. http://www.ebay.in/itm/RainbowImaging-Camera-Pentax-PK-K-mount-Lens-to-Micro-4-3-Four-Thirds-Syst-SKF-/281067558847?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item4170ee97bf&_uhb=1#ht_2172wt_1139

If they do which one would be a better buy out of the two for the lens? Will i be able to change the aperture on the lens if i were to use either of these adapters on my GH2? Also, if anyone has a zenith helios or knows anything more about it, please do share with me in terms of video quality.

I know it says M 4/3 but i have had issues with another vintage i had bought with a M42 adapter so i thought its best i cross check with the knowledgeable enthusiasts out here. :) Cheers!

K bayonet adapter?

I have GH2 and got "Tamron 1:3.8 1:4/210 80-210mm CF TELE MACRO" lens from my fahter. There's also text "103A" which I think is the model number. There's already attached adapter to it, which is according to my father "K bayonet" adapter.

The external diameter of the "K bayonet" end in the adapter is 44 mm or 1,75 inch.

I have another lense which is the same size as the "K bayonet". Now where can I get cheap ass adapter "K bayonet to M 4/3" ? I googled a little bit and found this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pentax-PK-K-Lens-Micro-M-4-3-M4-3-M43-Mount-Adapter-/140538573771 but I'm not 100% certain that it's the correct one.
