Mark, I think you will have to look for an old Pentax body. Many years ago I
wanted to mount a pentax macro lens on an OM10 body. Funds were short...and
I already had the lens....S.R.B. in the UK. made me a slim adapter but
warned me that it could NOT be made to focus to infinity. I believe (from
memory) that they said lens flange to film distance made infinity focus
impossible. Regards, John Duggan, Wales, UK.
