Some cheap extension tubes should have both male and female bayonets.

not sure if the lens is older "M" type or has electronics contacts.... if the latter you may need a lens with the exact same contact pins... meaning he might be better off swapping the glass out of his lens with another identical lens if he can get one with a scratched element or fungi super cheap..... most people damage the glass not the mount..

I'd go with Don's suggestion - see if you can find a stuffed identical lens with a good mount to swap onto it.

Thanks gentlemen!...the contacts are the problem,along with the positioning of the screw fixing holes.He has checked a couple of his lenses to use as spares but the holes are out of line!.I have a contact from SRS to try,so I'll give them a go!....thanks again!...Ken
