Hi again, I finally got the M42 adapter for the lens as in pics above and it fits perfectly. Not a bad lens either. I recently also acquired a SMC Takumar f1.4 50mm which was originally attached to an Asahi Pentax ES film camera. I assumed it would also fit to an M42 adapter and it screws fine up to midway when it then starts to screech and have to force it all the way fully screwed which then makes it almost impossible to change the aperture. As shown in pics the thread of the Takumar (left) has a different front design to the Kimunor lens.
Could someone she some light into this.

MarcusBMG - Thank you kindly for the info on this lens and the tips (+ links). I don't have a Pentax at present but will try to get an adapter for whatever camera I get next.
Cheers

Hello,
I'd like help finding out about this lens which only cost me £8 (British Pounds). Am new to 'big boys' photography so I need to know what type of camera mount this lens is for. Though the front of the lens says Kimunor, the case that came with it says Panagor.
Many thanks
