I recently inherited an old Practika B100, and some lenses for it.
I researched a little but couldn't find a definite answer. Is there any kind of adapter that I could buy to fit the lenses onto my D40?

When I was looking online it seems the fittings on the lenses are called an M42 mount or a P6 mount (I think). There is an adapter that fits onto the Practika for whatever of the two isn't the standard fitting, if I've identified them correctly.


Anyone got any ideas? :confused: When I get the chance I'll post photos of the lens fittings to give a better idea.

I think that might be it.
Damn I suck at Google...
