HOW TO USE MOUNT ADAPTOR K 1. Screw the conventional Takumar lens into the Mount Adaptor K. 2. Attach the Adaptor/lens unit to the camera body by aligning the red dots 0 and 0 , and turning 4F the lens clockwise until it locks with a click. (This takes slightly less than a quarter of a revolution.) 3. To remove the lens, leaving the Mount Adaptor K attached to the camera body, simply unscrew the lens counter-clockwise. Other screw-mount Takumar lenses can then be attached in the normal way. 1. To remove the Mount Adaptor K from the camera body, first remove the screw-mount lens. Then ® press, with your thumbnail or a pointed object such as a ballpoint pen, against the spring pin 2. Turn the Mount Adaptor K counter-clockwise until you feel it release, and take it out. 3. Since the mechanism for locking in the Mount Adaptor K is totally different from that which locks in an SMC Pentax bayonet-mount lens, the lock lever 0 on the camera body plays no part at all. •29
