Thanks for the extra information Bob, that was way more than I could find with Google. I'm glad I didn't try the self-timer out! There is no sign that the leatherette has been removed so I guess it was owned by somebody who was careful (or never used self-timers).
So maybe I should be calling it a Minolta XK copy with a prism that looks like an F2 and a bayonet mount that looks like a K-mount!!! I've done a quick test with an M85/2 and K50/1.2 and both mounted and dismounted fine. I suspect the LOMO lenses have a slightly thicker flange, as I also tried a Tokina Zoom and that was a little loose. I haven't tried any AF lenses. I've had a more careful look at the body and found a couple of signs of touchups so I'll drop the price to $US160 - that'll teach me to try and assess condition under artificial light. Paul
