For example, P/K stands for Pentax K mount, OM refers to Olympus, AR refers to Konica AR mount, FD/FL refers to Canon FD/FL mount and there are literally dozen type of mounts. The ideal label comes with the brand and it is easily identified as Nikon, Canon, Pentax, Minolta, Olympus etc. You really need to help yourself in finding the label at the rear portion of your lens. Hope this helps you a bit.Hin Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11542007867767875530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34648316.post-34017866816062171222013-11-13T19:50:17.442-08:002013-11-13T19:50:17.442-08:00Hi in searching for what this lens is I found your...Hi in searching for what this lens is I found your site and I'm hoping you can help me.....
