Dear all, forgive my that I am a total newbie and this is my first post.
For many years I am a proud (second owner) of a used Pentax-K01 (however this is without the default kit DA lens, but instead offered with takumar 28-80MM lens and later bought SMC 50MM lens). Mainly have been using it for videography.
I have been planning to use a
Helios 44-2 or the 44-6 for my K-01.
(which I'm sure many are aware) I've looked at was simply stunning.
So I bought an
M42 to PK adaptor here; thinking it would fit for my K-01 no problem as the seller does state in the description that the K-01 is compatible.
Alas, now it is stuck. I cannot unscrew, nor get it out. Tried rotating both clock and anticlockwise did not loosen the adaptor at all.
Should I go ahead and order the helios lens right away? Assuming now the camera only accepts M42 lenses. Otherwise, My pentax K-01 (and both of my existing Takumar zoom lens and SMC50 lens) are now rendered useless
