Need help choosing a digital camera
So Im thinking of buying a digital camera finally but am stuck between two choices, So I thought you guys would help me choose one. I own a pentax film camera and would be nice to have a single set of lenses for both film and digital. Rn my choices are-
i) A full frame sony a7ii or rii with some pentax vintage lenses which Id adapt onto.
or
ii)A old pentax dslr with some more vintage lenses. And also a original fuji x100 which wouldn't be that much of a drag to keep with me on just normal walks (I saw one for sale for 250-300$ on a local shop and havent seen a nice ccd camera here ones).
I have the A7ii, and I love it. Stabilization, weather sealing, FF, small size, great battery life, GREAT low light.
I don't know what matters to you though. I'm sure the Pentax DSLR is a great camera that can take fine images. Keep in mind that a DSLR is just generally more difficult to adapt lenses to.
Thats why Im planning to use pentax lenses on it
What adapter should I get for that?

You can get one of these off brand ones: https://amzn.to/3huJo5o
It is what I use. You can buy an adapter made by Pentax decades ago, but it's harder to find and expensive. Some say it works better, and by that I mean that sometimes the cheap ones get stuck in your mount and takes a little effort to get it back out. I haven't had it get stuck before, but it is difficult to remove at times and takes a minute or two.
