Does anyone know if this could be modified or an adapter available to convert to M42,PK or Canon Fd? Thanks.

No, the register difference would be massive. I'm sure it could be mounted on micro 4/3rds or Nex though.

Buy SLR version , conversion is possible anyway for talented people. I have an Exakta converted RF Jupiter-9. They are fantastic lenses I think sharper better than SLR lenses.

Thanks Attila but I am not sure what you mean by "get SLR type" Regards.

The Jupiter-9 is also available in M42 and Exakta mount, for SLR cameras. Attila is recommending you buy one of those instead as the rangefinder version is very difficult to adapt to a conventional DSLR due to the register distance.
