What am I missing here? My Pentax K500/4.5 mounts just fine on both my
K1000 film body and my K20D digital body, with no problem in focusing to

The the adapter is quiet strong, made from the same stainless steel as
the lens mounts on the cameras. I'd worry that those high quality lens
mounts aren't attached directly to the camera frame but seem to be
screwed into the plastic of the body. I don't think I'd carry anything

In theory I agree, however the 300mm f/4 screw mount I had on a DL was
heavy enough to cause some torqueing that I was uncomfortable with.
Of course, I was also using one of the cheapie Hong Kong adapters at first.

That was my question, maybe it was originally supplied with a 67 mount,

maybe the mount was lost...
