Jim,
I know the lense, I toured Italy, England, Wales and France with it 
(bought new along with the 28 ) in 1979 or 1980.
An excellent lens it was , and you shouldn't be disappointed with it.
I finally traded it in order to get zooms, and no more 42 mm threads, as 
even with 2 bodies (Spot F, and ESII, I found the process tedious).
I still have the 28, but never use it, no adaptor yet. :-(

Keep trying, shooting, and posting.
Amiti?s
Philippe
