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.

Often this means the item is a T mount. 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.

 I queried the seller of the 1000 mm. SMC lens on ebay. Does anyone
 understand her answer? The lens mount is threaded but it is not screw
 mount?

 From: Donna McArthur [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 Hi Joe,
 No, this lens is not a screw mount by design.  The end tube has threads,
 which accept adapters which can be either screw mount or k mount, or
 others.  The end of the threaded tube, is approx. 2 1/2 in diameter.
 We
 just happen to have the k mount adapter for this unit.  It is truly an
 impressive   piece of equipment.
 Thanks for your interest,
 Donna

Hi Bob, I don`t think any M42`s ever said SMC PENTAX on them.
I think it was a K mount modified to be a T mount.
