Lens Identification Help

Alanslinky · 09-22-2009, 06:52 PM

Hey everyone. I've got an old Hanimex Dr-1 camera that uses a Pentax K-mount setup. Recently I acquired for free a Clubman 70-210mm lens and was hoping to use it with my Hanimex camera. The thing is though, that the mount is slightly different and I was hoping someone on here might be able to tell me where i could get an adapter for the lens, or if I could modify the mount on the lens for use in my camera. I don't know how to identify lens mounts, so I've included a few pictures of the new lens to help give you guys some ideas as to what I'm looking at. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I think the little notch in the bayonet (about 100 degrees from top centre in the second photo) makes it a Konica or Minolta mount. Probably not worth the trouble to convert as an off brand K mount 70-210 f/4.5 is worth something like $10 to 20.
