Digital Camera Accessories Lenses
Digital SLR camera lens question?
I have an old Pentax Spotmatic SLR that the body is shot. I do however, have all kinds of lenses, macro attachments, and slide copier. My question is: Is there a digital SLR camera available that I could use the old Pentax accessories on? The body accepts 50mm screw-on lenses.
I had a pentax spotmatic in the early 70s and it was a durable camera but it indeed had the old pentax screw mount, called the M42 mount, that is NOT compatible with the current K bayonet pentax mount without an adapterring . Alot of the old lenses were Zeiss lenses of great quality
here is a good thread on adapters

And here is B&H listing for an adapter

BTW for the record Nikon has the best backwards lens compatibility for mounting system without using third party adapters They can use any lens AI converted onward on current DSLR though not with all fuctions. Pentax went to the K mount in 1975 and Nikon F mount mount was introduced in 1959. the old F mount pre AI lenses or NAI can be converted for about 20 dollars to AI converted lenses that do work today
