I have a bit of a dilemma with the cheap camera now . Now that it is sort of working do I go and spend money on a lens and battery for it?
I suppose I have saved money in not having to send it off to be repaired and it has given me some fun and headaches in trying to research and discover what was wrong with it . It would be nice to see what pictures it would take compared to my Pentax.
I need to give it some thought .

I try to. It's just good manners, after all, not to give your lurgies to others.
And that doesn't matter, whether it's a cold, covid or chlamydia...

Generic battery packs for DSLRs are cheap enough from places like 7dayshop. As for the lens, surely there's a Nikon to Pentax adapter available somewhere...
New hybrid here too. Lovely to see the numbers improving.

7Dayshop is my first port of call for batteries - and yes, there are plenty of adapters on Ebay.

I made a peach & pineapple pie a couple of days ago. With added custard.
It's not bad.

Right, that's the first rat trap box made.
Now to put some presentable clothes on and go and meet a friend for a nice walk with her dogs.

They're good - if you don't mind waiting. I have generic batteries for my Canon DSLRs from them, and I used to bulk-buy film from them (Fuji 400) back in the days when I used to still shoot film as they were pretty well much the cheapest.

They post out at the end of the week I think, so if you order on a Monday you might have a longer wait. I have ordered stuff in the past that has arrived in two days. I've bought Nikon batteries, GoPro batteries, AA & AAA cells... and many other things. I have never had any problems at all.

I most certainly try not to infect anyone, whatever infection I might have. Before I retired, I would be wearing a mask at work for a week or so a couple of times a year in order to protect others from my cold/sore throat etc.
Making an effort to minimise the passing on of infectious or contagious disease is surely a minimum courtesy and consideration when living in society.

Indeed, when I had oral surgery in Bangkok in the early 2000s I was just one of many people wearing a mask on the train and in taxis. It's no big deal.
