	I've got an older 135mm short telephoto lens, and I want to use
it on my Nikon.  Problem:  the thing is a screw mount, so won't fit the
Nikon body.  I've been to a few stores in the area, and all I've gotten
so far is "Well, we don't have an adapter, but we've got this really
great lens on sale...".  The lens is relatively good (f 2.8), and I like
the results I got with the old camera it came off of (the old one went
belly up), and I'd like to use this thing.  Does anybody know if there
really is or is not an adapter made to handle it, or if it would be worth
while to take it in to have it changed around to a Nikon mount, or even if
that's wise?
