Can someone make me a Pentax 645 to PL mount adapter? Duclos? Jacek?

[Michael Hastings]

I would like to eventually get the 645 epic and so I recently traded one of the underwater housings we make for a Pentax 645N and 35mm superwide lens (since my main interest is underwater).

I have since acquired a full set of pentax 645 manual lenses and they are actually very nice.

Wondered if any of you guys could make me an adapter like the Pentax 645 to EOS shown (about $60 ebay)

Flange focal distance for Pentax 645 is 70.87 mm so should be plenty of room between that and 52mm PL. I could supply the 645 to eos adapter if that would help as a starting point.

I understand that it wouldn't be anywhere as cheap as a chinese adapter. These manual lenses are really cheap now and seem to be as good or better than the nikon and such, so maybe there is a small market for a few adapters.

Happy to purchase or maybe trade underwater gear? Any scuba diving lens techs out there?

I'll do it

I'll do it

I'll need that adapter and possibly one lens(preferably wide) to check BF with the adapter.

Approx. how much? PM me if you don't want to say publicly yet.

I have a 55mm that I don't use much so could spare for a while - is that wide enough? (55 on 645 is equivalent to 35mm on full frame 35mm) I also have a 35mm but I use that a little more but could send it if you won't need it too long.

It would be nice.
