Bill queried:
I have recently purchased a lens that came with a Kenlock T2 Adapter
Ring. This ring was not attached to the lens and won't work with this
particular lens. Was there a T1 or perhaps T Adapter Ring which was
configured a little differently which might be the correct T adapter for
this lens? The lens happens to be a Russian 1100mm f10.5 mirror lens.
Any help sorting the adapter issue out would be appreciated.
-------------------------------------------------------------
How positive are you that the lens has a T mount? Have you considered
the possibility that it's actually a Pentax M42 screw thread? That
would explain a T mount that seems close to fitting since the T2 and M42
are very close. My recollection is that both have 42mm diameter threads
but a different thread pitch. Do you have another T2 adapter you could try?
