I did move it to Manual Focus Lenses, perhaps better to put there.

This is pretty much the standard price for these?

Can these be adapted to Pentax PK?

(I'm too lazy right now to look up the answer.)

I know that Tee has a special mount.
But by the looks of the Jupiter-9, it seems they wont work on slr-s.
Its the skinny version, so Im gonna bet they work only on MFT systems.
(If you can get your hands on a adapter that is.)

Can not adapt to any camera. Only if you accept that you will use a wide open, has no aperture ring.
The Kiev 15 had a mechanical automation system, was the first machine, in fact, the kiev 10 Crying or Very sad

I reworked the Helios-81 for m42 or Pentax.

Aperture can be changed if we remove the lens.
