Isn't that what CBA is for? you obviously need a second body.

I have 6 Bodies, mostly because I never sell any of my cameras.

They go KX, Ricoh XR-2s, PX-1, *istD, K10D, K7D

The M42 adaptor lives for the moment, along with a diagonal split image focusing screen on my K10D.

I have in M42:
Asahi Spotmatic
Praktica FX
Zenit EM

K-mount:
Pentax MZ-7
Pentax K7

I don't use my M42 cameras as much thus I don't want the M42 version if I can get same one (optically improved?) in K-mount.

For the past 4 years I bought and sold more than 30 various manual focus lenses, and I'm sick of dealing with m42 adapters.
I used to have a split screen on my old K10D, but I found that it wasn't correct, so with the K7 I use liveview for critical focusing.

Excellent collection. Missing the M * 300mm F:4. The M 50mm 1.2 and the 85mm are very expensive and hard to find as well.

Did you notice in the picture that the 50mm 1.2 has a bright spot like saying here I am, the stat of the collection (Just my observation).
