Adams" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Seems like ebay madnes OK - I've tried, unsuccessfully, to check the m-42 adapter with my Spotmatic. I am not at all sure what I am doing here! Part is my unfamiliarity with the screw mount cameras, more is that I continue to be baffled by the T-4 mount. I have two different M-42 adapters. One is marked P/ES and the other PX. from reading Danilo Cecchi's book, I think that the PX must be the older "semi-automatic" coupling where you need to press a small lever after a shot to reset the lens. And I think that the P/ES is the newer fully-automatic coupling, with a slide switch to select A or M. Sound about right? I have been able to mount the PX on the lens, but haven't found the right combination of orientation etc to mount the P/ES. What I suggest is that I send you the lens (plus caps and filter) and whichever of the two adapters you want to try. If you can make it work, great! If not, we can try the other adapter or whatever. Let me know your preference. Also, I don't have your mailing address . . . stan > From: "James M.
