Hi guys, I'm new to photography and mf lenses. I just ordered a Pentax screw mount PENTACON 50mm f1.8 multi coating lens from ebay to use with my NEX 3N. I am not sure which adapter should I buy for it. 
Is it the M42 to NEX adapter ?....or PK-NEX adapter ?...or any other ? 
Thanks in advance!

Hi and welcome to the forum.
You require the M42 to NEX adapter.
BTW, links and photos don't show up in your first post, you'll be ok from now on.

Welcome to the forum. Please let us know what gear you have got. I guarantee you will have doubled it within a few months. Such is the allure of excellent, cheap old lenses.
Oh, by the way PK-NEX is for Pentax bayonet lenses.

I regularly order adapters from big_is on ebay and the quality is really good, with quite fast shipping and reasonable price, you can consider that. If you're getting into using manual lenses, it's better to spend some extra money on PK-NEX adapter (for Pentax bayonet mount) and some M39-M42 rings. From my experience, these lenses (M42, M39, Pentax bayonet mount) are very easy to get with low price and are the most common one, so you don't have to wait for ordering adapters once you can get the lens.
