Artur,

Not exactly right... Adaptor do exist to mount K mount lenses on screwmount 
bodies.  I have one that is about 7.5mm thick, so you loose infinity focus.  
This is not a problem as it came with/on a bellows lens.  It just puts a bit 
more extension on the bellows.  <g>

 Damn! Youre right! I misunderstood what Jacek wrote... of course one cannot
 use K-mount lenses on m-42 bodies, as there is no such adapter. I don't know
 how, but I thought Jacek had written about the possibility to use just the
 reverse - m42 lenses on K-mount bodies. Sorry for confusing you all... >>
