Hi all. I spend a lot of time using M42 lenses. I have been using an M42 adapter that i purchased from SRB-Griturn. The problem is that the leaf-spring has now broken and the the adapter will not stay on the camera. I have contacted SRB but no spare parts are available. I have also recently picked up a genuine Pentax adapter (came with a lens i bought) but this one had had the leaf-spring removed already. I emailed SRS but again no spares. I really would like to find a way to keep the adapter on the camera so that i can swap my M42 lenses easily. Does anyone know of a source of leaf springs? Or have any of you got an ingenious idea that will keep it in place? Mike.

Hello all.
I've been reading the forums for a while now. Finally decided to sign up and join in. I haven't quite got a Pentax, but it virtually is, it's a GX10. I've got the kit lenses but spend a lot of time playing with old manual focus M42 lenses of which i have a few. Mike.
