     I have several pieces of equipment (closeup lenses, broken ring light,
etc.)  that need to be screwed into a mount 44mm in diameter.  They are left
over from an old Kodak Retina (we ain't talkin' new).
     My Pentax has a 49mm mount.
     I went to my photo store and asked for an adapter.  They said they don't
carry unusual sizes.  Is 44mm that weird?  Is 49mm weird?  If not, let me
know and I'll keep calling camera stores.  If so, any suggestions on finding
an adapter?  Any mail-order places that might have it?
