33MM Lenses

Hi Everyone,

I have another question about OLD Pentax stuff.

Before the 42MM standard screwmounts, I believe Pentax cameras used 33MM.

If I'm correct, was there ever a 33MM to 42MM adapter?

Thanks as always

Mac from Montreal

The Asahiflex models had a 37mm screw mount. There was an adapter to allow use of the Asahiflex lenses on the new 42mm mount bodies.
Best regards, John

Sorry guys, of course you're correct 37 not 33MM.

Ah well.

Thanks,

Mac

Try to keep up, Mac. After all, you're now the resident old lens specialist. When I need M42 information, you're the first person I turn to.
