I think both of these are aimed more at the "I've got this old lens & I
wonder what it goes to?" crowd than towards the aficionados.

The pictures aren't very good. You can barely distinguish many of the details on the
mounts. I was also hoping for descriptive text to go with the pictures. On Fri, Dec

For those who enjoy looking for vintage camera lenses at the local

Looks like nice clear pictures and explanations.
hmmm, i'm not sold on this reference
it says "Pentax Screw Mount" without bothering to mention it is M42 and how
widely used it is/was; the Pentax-K example seems to be a Pentax K-A; i
don't think you can distinguish "Pentax Auto-Focus K" from "Pentax-Digital"
by looking at the mount ...
here's a reference i bookmarked long ago when i was learning some of these
things; it's not perfect either, but i like the fact it has specific tips
for lens recognition
<http://rick_oleson.tripod.com/index-99.html>
more important to me in thrifting etc. is recognizing which lenses are
special ? anyone know of a quick reference of that sort?
