Do Pentax K mount lenses work on Pentax DSLRs?

Yes, every K mount lens fits Pentax DSLRs. Manual K and M lenses are used in manual or stop down metering mode, A lenses add full exposure automation, and F and FA lenses also autofocus.

What is the difference between Takumar and SMC Pentax lenses?

Takumar lenses use the M42 screw mount of the Spotmatic era, while SMC Pentax lenses use the K bayonet introduced in 1975. Takumars fit K mount cameras with an M42 adapter and adapt easily to mirrorless cameras.

Which Pentax lens is a good first choice?

A 50mm such as the SMC Pentax M 50mm f/1.7 is compact, sharp and affordable, which makes it the classic starting point for film and digital shooters alike.
