Hi Sharnbrook,
Thanks for all of your suggestions!!
Regarding your idea about reversing the lens, so you take the lens off and put an adapter at the front of the lens. You then turn the lens around and reattach it, backwards, to the camera??
I tried holding the lens, by hand, in reverse against the front of the camera and then brought the camera up to my PC screen and it was definately magnified by a lot. Can I ask, how does this go with focus and also lighting as I noticed it was very dark?
Also, regarding the diffuse flash, got any pictures you want to post?
I will certainly be looking into your other suggestion about adapters that will allow older, and cheaper, lenses to fit. If all else fails then I will just have to do what I was expecting that I would have to do and buy a ready made and purpose built lens for a pentax.
Thanks
Daniel...
