<p>To the world of lens mount adapters comes a new creation by Adaptist. Called the Pentax K+ Multi-Mount, this adapter takes a unique approach to the mounting system allowing you to attach Nikon F-mount, Olympus OM-mount, Contax/Yashica C/Y-mount and Konica AR-mount lenses (in addition to the standard K-mount, of course) to your Pentax DSLR, all within this one integrated solution.</p><p>It works in two ways. First, rather than placing this overtop of your Pentax DSLR's mounting bracket, you replace it entirely with the PK+MM (using a standard 2mm Phillips head screwdriver). Doing this allows for the correct focal distance to be achieved across all lens types, something often inhibited by the "screw over" type of adapters. Plus, since there's no need for additional glass in this mount, there isn't any decrease in image quality.</p><p>The second way in which it works its magic is through the unique approach they've taken to creating a more universal bayonet mount. I'll let the crew over at Adaptist explain this one:</p><p>Most bayonet mounts have 3 metal tabs and the differences between different mounts lies in the mount diameter, position, thickness, shape and size of these tabs. Measurements and trials were used to determine the best design to accommodate the different mounts.</p><p><a href="http://petapixel.com/2014/03/04/multi-mount-offers-integrated-solution-for-using-bayonet-mount-lenses-on-your-dslr/">Keep reading...</a></p><p>Read also:</p><p><a href="http://www.popphoto.com/gear/2014/03/pkmm-mount-adapts-nikon-olympus-and-other-lenses-pentax-cameras">PK+MM Mount Adapts Nikon, Olympus, and Other Lenses On Pentax Cameras</a> (Popular Photography Magazine)</p><p>Explore: <a href="http://news.google.com/news/more?ncl=duBO07iHNTUpg-MLatflGBW9LzmVM&authuser=0&ned=us">2 additional articles.</a></p>
