Good news - it works! I use mine for the Pentax *ist DS DSLR. Care is required when mounting the stiletto, then uncoupling it and replacing it with the DSLR. All adapters, couplings, focusers, etc much be tight or locked to avoid any play or movement, otherwise there is the potential to disturb the precise focus position.

Every time I have thought that I had a precise focus using just my eyeballs through the viewfinder of the Pentax, the stiletto has always proved me wrong when I fitted it, delivering a sharp, focused image.

I did have a problem once when I used a cheap T2 ring and it wobbled in the stiletto which is useless - it should be firmly engaged.

Cheers
