Notice of Discontinuation of Production of
Weather Resistant (WR) version of Pentax K+ Multi Mount, PK+MM.
It has been exactly 5 years since I launched this website to put the Pentax K+ Multi Mount (PK+MM) on the internet to allow more people be aware of it. With the standard non-WR version launched 5 months later (Jan 2014) and the WR-version made available 11 months later (July 2014), it has been an exciting and wonderful journey for me to bring these 2 creations to all those who bought it.
As you may have noticed, the WR version was out of stock for a few months since March 2018. The reason was that the last batch was sold out and possible legal complications forced us to end the smooth partnership with our current factory partner. The search for another factory to continue producing the PK+MM (WR) started early this year but had been faced with unsatisfactory quality and high cost issues.
After months of negotiations with multiple factories, it has come to me that it is not longer viable to keep any Pentaxians interested in my product to keep on waiting indefinitely with a slim chance of re-stock. Hereby, with this notice, I am announcing that PK+MM (WR) will be dis-continued indicating that there is no main product under Adaptist.
Will it ever come back again?
The future is unknown but just leave your email with us in the mailing list and we will inform you straightaway if it does.
Will this site be closed?
No. I still have other ideas and plans and after sales support for existing customer will still continue as part of my efforts to keep this website going. Nikon shims will still be sold at this website until current stock is depleted as some customers may need replacements.
Once again, I am deeply grateful to all the customers who has bought from Adaptist as now you have one of the the 200 pieces PK+MM ever produced. I also wish to extend my gratitude to the many more that have shown interest or supported the PK+MM product line.
Thank you!
Sincerely yours,
Adaptist
