I am having trouble locating a Pentax 6x7 to 645 lens adapter. There
was one at KEH a while ago but it was gone before I managed to buy
it. I have tried googling and checking B&H, Adorama, eBay and
Calumet. Where else should I look?

I think KEH will allow you to leave a "wish list", i.e. let them know
what you're looking for and they'll contact you if/when one becomes
available.

You will occassionally find these adapters on Ebay.  There are a
couple listed right now.  Prices generally range from around $70 to
$130.  I use one adapting my 45 and 200 67 lenses to 645 body.  Works
great and retains automation and infinity focus.  As usual, Pentax got
everything right offering these adapters.
Good luck in your search.
Health, Peace

Yes, I can see one being offered now. Thanks for the info on the price
range.

And I ended buying a brand new one for $92. Not too bad, I guess.
