Cleaning up for my party I noticed a bag of miscellaneous filters that had
picked up for a few bucks. They were all really weird sizes. It turns out that
several of them fit the Rollei! Not all that amazingly useful, but cool
nonetheless.
I also noticed in that bag an adapter with the box labeled
Vivitar Camera Adapter
Mamiya/Sekor
Pentax
TA1
No. 20-9016
The adapter is m42 female threads on one side and the female side of a bayonet
mount on the other. On a Pentax it would be the body side of the bayonet
mount. It is labeled T-CAF
It seems like one of those obscure widgets that most people would have no use
for, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone on this list had a Mamiya and a
pile of M42 glass, but no way to put them together.
I do know (or, rather, knew - haven't seen him in about five years,
since I last went to Russia) someone in that position but I fail to see
how the adaptor would work. Surely the bayonet would have to be male?
