I just bought 3 MF lenses for a decent price and I wanted to verify the mounts on them. I looked at various websites and found some gray areas. Can you guys please help me confirm these? Thanks!

This is the one I'm worried about the most. I read that this is could be a Ricoh mount, but I can still use the pentax adapter. any confirmations?

I believe this one is a K-mount, which I just use the K-mount to EOS adapter

I think this one is a Contax mount, and uses a standard Contax-EOS adapter

I suggest you check with these folks below that will confirm if they stock your needs. I have used them for all my MF adapters.

IMO, yes since it gets you in the ballpark and most of mine are spot-on with these adapters. Bear in mind the AF confirmation on these adapters fitted to the vintage lenses only provide AF confirmation wide open to f5.6 although in very nice ambient light you might get it at f8.0 but dont count on it.
