I notice they mention the Nikon lens mount as having "endured, with some operational changes, even until the present digital era—a remarkable example of non-obsolescence." No mention of the fact that the K mount is also still with us and is if anything more backwards-compatible than the Nikon!

I used to think that as well yet the F mount goes back to 1959 whilst the K mount was launched in 1975 (Wikipedia). Both Nikon and Pentax have kept their original bayonet mounts. Only changes were the addition of screw AF and electrical contacts.

Best regards.
