Thank for the response Algi. I've decided to return the bellows and stick with K fit extension tubes for macro. Just need some critters to snap

Have acquire an old M42 Pentax bellows which I had intended to use with a ex Zenit lens. Unfortunately this lens has an A-M switch which prevents the lens being screwed home. Can this switch be removed without affecting the lens, it looks like it may be held in place with one screw. Could put some gaffer tape or something over the hole. I assume any lens with this switch would have the same problem ? Recommended very cheap lenses to use instead

Letting the soil 'settle' in the borders then on with the plantex and slate chippings. Playtime
