Re: 67 lens -> screw mount adapter?

[Ryan K. Brooks]

I want to try the 1Ds as a "digital back" for the 67.    I can go 
67->M42->EOS a lot cheaper (by several hundred $) than 67->EOS.    This 
would be in addition to the 67 body.  Right now I haul two 67 bodies, 
the 600, 200, 55-100 and an MZ-S around my neck- so it's not that big a 
deal to swap either a 67 body or the MZ-S for the 1Ds.

I imagine I'm going to be disappointed by the lenses, hence I don't want 
to invest a lot (but I'm hoping).

why would you want to use the huge, oversized
67 lenses on a 35mm body? ( I know I own
a bunch of them). If your going to put up
with the bulk and weight and carry
the 67 lenses, might as well bring a 67 body
along too.

Correction- I meant to say the EOS version is over $300.  I'm trying to 
get 67 lenses on my 1Ds.

I know there's an adapter to go from 67 -> K-mount, but is there one 
that goes to screw mount?  Google didn't turn up any.

TIA,
