I bought this adapter for the purpose of learning and working with Reverse Lens Photography. This adapter works as I expected it to perform, my problem is getting used to this type of "focusing", a learning lesson on my part.

Comments about General Brand Reverse Adapter Pentax K to 52mm:
I love that this is such an affordable way to get into Macro Photography. I am interested in maco but like many starting out in photography I have limited funds. This is a very affordable way to try it out.
I have a Pentax K20D. This works on the camera. The one drawback is everything has to be done manually, including focusing. Another thing is with my 18-55mm wide angle lens I have to hold the aperture open by holding down the piece at the end of the lens with my finger. If it don't I can't see through the view finder and the photos all come out black. This is way I give it a 4 star instead of a 5; because I have to trick my lens.
But again it's a great affordable way to try out macro. If I decide I really like it then I'll invest in a good lens; till then... this works for me! :)
