The Pentax 1000-mount, sometimes referred to equally the "PK-mount", is a bayonet lens mount standard for mounting interchangeable photographic lenses to 35 mm single-lens reflex (SLR) cameras. Information technology was created by Pentax in 1975,^[i] and has since been used by all Pentax 35 mm and digital SLRs and likewise the MILC Pentax M-01. A number of other manufacturers have besides produced many K-mount lenses and K-mount cameras.

Mounts [edit]

The Pentax K-mount has undergone a number of evolutions over the years equally new functionality has been added. In full general, the term K-mountain may refer to the original K-mountain, or to all its variations.

Originally designed by Zeiss for an alliance with Pentax, it was intended to be a common lens mountain for a proposed series of cameras and lenses. Withal, the plan failed to work out and the ii firms parted visitor amicably, simply Pentax retained the lens mount and at to the lowest degree i Zeiss lens blueprint for its ain use.^[2]

Yard-mountain [edit]

The original K-mount is a elementary bayonet connection with iii tabs. It was introduced with the K series of cameras. The lens is locked into the camera with an approx. 70° clockwise turn (when looking at the front end of the camera).

The simply linkage with the photographic camera is mechanical and involves the aperture. A slot between 2 of the bayonet tabs on the lens allows the stop-down coupler from the photographic camera to sense the aperture setting on the lens and adjust the light meter brandish accordingly. Opposite this is the diaphragm release from the lens which extends into the camera body and holds open the leap-loaded diaphragm of the lens. When setting up a shot this keeps the diaphragm fully open up. When the shutter is released, then is this lever. Information technology allows the diaphragm to shut to the desired setting while the film is being exposed, and opens it again after the shutter closes.

Both of these linkages are bundled so that they are aligned and spring-loaded by the act of inserting the lens and turning it until it locks.

Bodies equipped with the original K-mount include the One thousand series, the Yard series except the ME F, and the Threescore. Lenses that support it include those labelled 'SMC Pentax', 'SMC Pentax-One thousand' and 'SMC Pentax-A'. These 1000-mount bodies cannot use lenses that lack an aperture ring, such every bit FAJ or DA.

Thousand-mount lenses tin can exist used on all Pentax bodies, but are restricted to stopped down fashion when used with "crippled" K_AF-mount bodies (encounter below).

K_F-mount [edit]

Pentax ME F and SMC Pentax-AF 35-70/2.8, the only products using the Thou_F-mount.

The One thousand_F-mount was Pentax's first effort at an autofocus system. This autofocus system used sensors in the camera body and a motor in the lens. The 2 were connected via five new electrical contacts on the bayonet mountain itself. One permitted the lens to turn on the photographic camera's metering and focus sensors, 2 focused the lens (towards and abroad from infinity) and 2 appear to have been unused and may have been reserved for future functionality.

The K_F-mount was largely a failure. But one camera and one lens e'er used this mount, the Pentax ME F and SMC Pentax-AF 35-70/ii.8. The lens was somewhat large and cumbersome since it had to enclose both the focusing motor (with gears) and batteries to ability it. K_F and the ME-F are similar in many ways to the system used by Catechism in the ill-fated Canon T80, introduced several years later.

The ME F tin can use all Pentax Chiliad-mount lenses which feature an discontinuity ring. The 35–70 mm lens can be used on all other Pentax K-mount bodies in manual focus mode, simply information technology must be used stopped downwards on "bedridden" K_AF bodies.

Thousand_A-mountain [edit]

Pentax A 50 mm lens displaying the Grand_A-mount

The One thousand_A-mount is derived from the original K-mountain. It allows the lens's aperture to be set by the trunk, and thus permits shutter priority and plan car exposure modes. It was introduced in 1983, and is supported past A-serial and P-series bodies; Pentax lenses that back up it are marked 'SMC Pentax-A'. It is completely backward-compatible with the original G-mount.

The aperture on the lens is set from the body by the same stop-down lever establish on the original Grand-mount, but on M_A-lenses this lever is proportional to the area of the discontinuity opening, rather than the bore equally on previous lenses. This allows the body to easily ready a specific aperture, since the relationship to F stops is linear. The lenses add together an 'A' setting on the discontinuity dial, which gives the body control of the aperture. Other, numeric settings are used for manual discontinuity modes—aperture priority and total manual manner.

Half-dozen electrical contacts are added to the bayonet band. 1 is slightly recessed and allows the lens to indicate whether the aperture ring is set at 'A' or non. If it is, a pin on the lens extends slightly and makes contact, while if the lens is at whatever other setting the pin is retracted and does not make contact. The other v contacts are used to encode the lens's aperture range. Each contact on the lens is either conducting or non-conducting, providing a binary 1 or 0, respectively. Two contacts encode the lens's minimum discontinuity—f/16, f/22, f/32 or f/45; although no Pentax Thousand-mountain lens has e'er had an f/xvi minimum aperture, OEM lenses frequently have. The other 3 contacts encode the lens's maximum aperture; their meaning is dependent on the minimum discontinuity indicated by the lens. (There are at to the lowest degree 2 newer lenses that accept a minimum aperture of only f/16: HD D FA 85mm F1.iv and HD D FA* 50mm F1.4. https://www.pentaxforums.com/lensreviews/hd-pentax-d-fa-85mm-f14-sdm-aw.html and https://world wide web.pentaxforums.com/lensreviews/hd-pentax-d-fa-50mm-f14-sdm-aw.html)

Thou_AF-mount [edit]

The K_AF-mountain was Pentax'south second and much improved try at calculation auto-focus to lenses. It adds a small drive shaft to the Thou_A-mount, assuasive the body to accommodate the focus of the lens. This makes the lenses less bulky than the earlier G_F-mount, which had both a motor and batteries within the lens.

It too adds a seventh electric contact, this one carrying digital information from the lens to the camera. It carries the following information: focal length, distance to the subject field, exact absolute f-finish value, and lens size. This data is used to make amend exposure decisions, along with the multi-segmented metering that was introduced in cameras using the 1000_AF-mountain.

The MZ-30/ZX-xxx, MZ-50/ZX-50, MZ-60/ZX-60, the *ist series and the K100D/K110D lack the mechanical stop-down coupler/indicator. In these cameras – in aperture priority mode – the discontinuity is set past a punch on the photographic camera body, and no longer on the lens. Pre-A lenses can but be used in manual terminate down metering manner and manual flash mode.

The Grand_AF2-mountain is the same as the One thousand_AF-mount except that information technology adds two extra ability contacts to the within of the mounting ring and transmits modulation transfer function (MTF) data through the digital 7th contact. The power contacts were originally used for ability zooming. Since the introduction of the K10D digital SLR model, they are mainly used for powering Silent Bulldoze Motor and DC motor lenses.

The K10D/K100D Super and after cameras do not have a mechanical stop-down coupler/indicator and thus tin but utilize stop-down metering on pre-A lenses.

K_A2-mount [edit]

The K_A2 is identical to Grand_AF, merely lacks the autofocus bulldoze shaft. Some other mode of looking at it is that it adds the seventh contact for digital information to the K_A-mount.

K_AF3-mount [edit]

The K_AF3-mount is used on Pentax lenses that solely rely on SDM or DC autofocus motors. It is identical to the K_AF2, but lacks the screw-drive autofocus bulldoze shaft.^[3] Another way of looking at it is that information technology adds the power zoom/in-lens autofocus motor contacts to the K_A2 mountain.

K_AF4-mount [edit]

The Thou_AF4-mount was introduced in June 2016 with the Hd Pentax-DA 55-300mm F4.5-half dozen.three ED PLM WR RE lens. It is identical with K_AF3, apart from the missing aperture control lever. Instead, aperture command information is transmitted digitally through the information pin and the aperture is stopped downwardly through a motor built into the lens. Information technology also introduced a new blazon of autofocus motor, designated PLM or Pulse Motor. At the time of its introduction, the post-obit Pentax DSLR bodies were compatible with the new mountain: K-lxx, K-fifty, Yard-S2, K-S1, K-i, K-iii Ii, with all only the K-lxx requiring a firmware update. Also after a recent firmware update the original K3 tin use the new mount.^[3]

"Partially fully-enabled" K-mount [edit]

All digital K-mountain Pentax SLR bodies as well as some lower-end film cameras lack the ability to read the position of the aperture simulator. This means that lenses that lack the lens information contacts introduced with the K_A-mount (Pentax M- and M-series lenses every bit well every bit some third-political party products) do non support open-discontinuity metering on these bodies. Instead, terminate-down metering must be carried out past pushing the "green push" on the camera before taking a shot. This variation of the mount is usually referred to as the "Partially fully-enabled" K-mount.^[3]

R-K-mountain [edit]

The R-K-mountain is a variation on the original K-mount by Ricoh. Information technology supports Ricoh's ain implementation of shutter priority and auto exposure modes, similar to the K_A-mount but much simpler. The only add-on to the original K-mountain is a small pivot, commonly dubbed Ricoh pin,^[3] at the bottom which tells the body when the discontinuity ring has been set up to the "P" setting (like to the "A" setting on Pentax K_A lenses). The 'P' setting is not uniform with the 'A' setting as the 'P' pin is in a different location than the 'A' contact on Pentax 'A' lenses and the flange on Pentax bodies.

The R-K-mount is used on Rikenon P lenses, Ricoh bodies that include the letter 'P' in their model number, and some non-Ricoh lenses. Information technology is uniform with all other 1000-mountain cameras and lenses when in manual or aperture-priority exposure modes, nonetheless the actress pin needs to be removed for safe employ on autofocus Pentax cameras, every bit it can otherwise get locked within the autofocus shaft.^[3] Lenses locked to the camera body this manner are hard to remove and may require complete dismantling.

Adaptors to use on One thousand-mountain [edit]

L39 / LTM [edit]

Adaptors can be establish to allow use of lenses with Leica M39 thread (screw) mountain. If a lens originally intended for Leica Rangefinder cameras is used, focusing is express to about x cm. Nevertheless, some SLR lenses were made in LTM 39 mount, mostly by KMZ for use in the early Zenit SLRs which had LT 39 mounts. These "Zenit" TM 39 lenses volition focus properly. Or these lenses tin can be used in conjunction with the M42 to LTM 39 adapter.

M39 [edit]

Adaptors can be constitute to let employ of a non-Leica 39 mm mount into the K-mountain, typically as a M39-M42 adapter ring that is mounted in a M42-PK adapter; they may focus to infinity.

M42 [edit]

M42 lens (Beroflex) with Pentax G-mount adapter

Pentax supplies adapters to fit M42 screw-mount lenses, every bit practice several third-party manufacturers. The M42 screw-mount system was used by Pentax prior to the introduction of the K-mount. Pentax designed the M-mountain wide enough to allow an adapter to fit betwixt the M42 thread and the G bayonet. They as well kept the aforementioned flange focal distance (also called registration altitude or register) as the M42 spiral-mount, so that M42 lenses focus correctly using the correct adapter (such equally Pentax original^[iv] or Bower). There are still other tertiary-party adapters that add to the flange focal distance so that one loses the ability to focus to infinity. The loss of infinity-focus may not be significant in macro or close-up photography.

At that place is great debate in the Pentax community over the applicability and prophylactic of adapters other than those supplied by Pentax. Many users^{[ who? ]} of tertiary-party infinity-focus adapters, such as Bowers, report difficulty in removing the adapters from camera bodies.^{[ citation needed ]} Such adapters may require modification before they may be safely used. Official Pentax adapters, and flanged non-infinity-focus adapters, practise not provoke such problems.

Many old M42 lenses take a mod-day cult reputation, including the (Pentax) Asahi Takumar range. Some manufacturers, including Carl Zeiss AG, nonetheless make lenses in the M42-mount. M-mount cameras take a suitable flange focal altitude (45.46 mm) to adapt former M42 lenses without whatsoever optical correction or loss of infinity focus/changed shut focus distance. Other SLRs with a short flange-focal distance can accept M42 lenses too: Canon EF-mount (44.00 mm), Sony and (Konica) Minolta A-mount (44.50 mm), Sigma (44 mm), Olympus 4/3rd (38.67 mm), and many more than, but notably not Nikon F-mount (46.5 mm).

Nikon AI/AIS [edit]

Voigtländer Bessamatic / Kodak Retina [edit]

Adapter for Voigtländer Bessamatic and Voigtländer Ultramatic lenses, Kodak Retina Reflex, or Kodak Retina IIIs lenses.

Petri [edit]

There is also some Petri adapter to Thousand-mount simply those do not allow to focus to infinity due to the different flange-to-film-plane distance.

Medium format [edit]

Pentax made adapters for its medium-format lenses to use on the Thou-mountain, both the 645 and six×seven, and for the Hasselblad Bayonet type. Also there is a Pentacon-Six (Kiev88 CM) adapter still in product and a shift adapter to use Pentacon lenses as shift lens.

T-mount [edit]

Mounts used for Telescopes, microscopes and generic optics. The T-mountain was initially developed by Tamron (1957) to allow the easy adaption of generic 35 mm SLR eyes into multiple mounts. The T-mount is a 42 mm diameter 0.75 mm pitch screw mount with a 55 mm flange focal altitude. Later versions (T2, T4, TX) were more than avant-garde and complex. Several other manufacturers also Tamron have used these mounts. Because the T-mount is even so used for many telescopes and microscopes, they are even so bachelor new. Note that while both T-mount and M42-mount are 42mm screw mount systems, and will mount if they are forced, they are not uniform. The deviation in pitch tin cause damage to the lens, adapter or photographic camera mount if they are confused.^{[ citation needed ]}

Adaptall [edit]

These are adaptors designed by Tamron to allow the transfer of aperture setting from lens to camera or vice verse, including the Adapt-A-matic (1969), Adaptall (1973) and Adaptall-ii (1979). When Pentax introduced the KA-mount in 1983 Tamron upgraded their Adaptall-2 Yard-mount into an Adaptall-ii KA-mount. For more than details come across the Tamron article or the Adaptall-2 web site.^[5]

Cima Kogaku had a patented^[7] system that allowed them to build common lens bodies, and add together the appropriate lens mountain at the factory. The Pentax version was only 1000-mount, non KA-mount. They by and large sold their lenses on an OEM basis, with them sold under a variety of different brands. In the Great britain, they were sold by Photax as Super-Paragon PMC lenses. Tokyo Kogaku sold them as AM Topcor lenses for their Topcon RM300 camera.
