you have it all wrong, 440 six pack in a triumph TR4A.
but that is off topic.
As someone said, why bother with a canon camera at all, unless it is the only film body you have. I would be better off with the K mount adaptor and any selection from KX ricoh XR2s or PZ-1.
the only good thing about the pentax reverse bayonette mount is that you could have a fixed pin for maximum apature, as it was only the locking collar that rotated not the lens, when you mount. Therefore you can also, I assume, have automatic apature and shutter priority metering.
Its really my inherent lazyness that keeps me away from M42 lenses, I just like automatic apature, so I get K mounts.
