Is there any way to mount a Praktina Biotar to either Samsung NX 1000, or my old Panasonic G1 [ micro 4/3rds ]
Thanks.

I only know of one from www.rrlens.com but its 99 euros. DIY I think!! *

EDIT:
The Praktina mount flange focal plane distance is quoted as 50mm and M42 as 45.46mm so theoretically there is room. I am a little dubious about FFD's quoted distance because they don't always say where it's measured from.

The Praktina mount has a breechlock mechanism on the camera - much like the Altix making any adapter more complicated.

* an M42 adapter and plenty of hot glue will definitely do the job and is non destructive
