I'm considering buying a Flektogon lens with what is described as a Exa/Exakta mount (3-lug bayonet), but I'm wondering if it's possible to get an adapter to mount it on my K-mount SLR? Any tips? Any tips on what to call such an adapter or where to find one? Thanks! |

Hi John: I have adapted exakta lenses to a minolta but with massive remilling and using an old sr mount from a lense. Not worth the trouble, even with and adapter it may not focus to infinity, it all depends on the focus distance from the rear element to the film plane..I have adapted a tessar to sr mount just for the novelty of it...also the lense is used in manual stop down...Don |
