That's the point it is not a screw mount version or it would say Takumar on it. There is no variance on this point. Kent Gittings

I have two of these. Strictly speaking, it is a screw mount to which various adapters, K mount included, can be attached. No provision is made for any control of any kind, i.e. no diaphragm control. This mount is somewhat common on telescopes designed to also be used on cameras. However, this is not the case here. The lens is Pentax screw mount and she has a K mount adapter for it.
