serious Pentax user or collector. This (now out of print) book far
more than paid for itself when it helped me identify a lens that was

I realize that all of the savvy Pentax people on this list already own
a copy, but since I just posted it For Sale on the pentaxforums

I think the problem lies with the little springy tab that is supposed
to prevent the adapter from moving when you unscrew the lens.
Removing the spring should might be a solution, I've not tried it yet
though.
