SMC Takumar 50/1.4+Fuji X-T10 - Non focused picture

[Ilya Azar]

Hello everybody!
There is a problem with the SMC Takumar 50/1.4 lens.
I have a Fuji X-T10.
I bought lens on ebay from Japan - SMC Takumar
Also bought an adapter - Adapter

When installing the adapter and lens there is no focused image, the image is blurred. 

The manual focus wheel on the lens does not adjust the focus.

The settings on the camera are set correctly - the focus is transferred to the manual mode, the mode "Shoot without lens" is set. 
What could be the problem? Adapter? Lens? Camera settings?

Examples of photos attached.
I would be grateful for any help.

Ilya.

that adapter is too short (as written in the description).
Try to find a "PK-FX" or "K-mount - FX" adapter. You need a correction of the flange distance from Fuji X-Mount (17,7 mm) to Pentax K-Mount (45,46 mm), so the adapter should be 27,76 mm long.

How did you get the lens (pk) to fit on the adapter (m42) since they have different mounts?

Assuming the lens you posted is what you have, you'd need a Pentax K to Fuji X mount adapter like this: https://www.amazon.com/Fotodiox-Lens-Mount-Adapter-Mirrorless/dp/B008BBI994

I've used numerous Pentax and Takumar (m42) lenses adapted to my Fuji cameras without any issues.

Thank you very much for answers. I bought this adapter https://ru.aliexpress.com/item/High-Precision-M42-FX-Lens-Adapter-for-M42-screw-Mount-Lens-To-for-Fujifilm-X-Pro1/32745938005.html?spm=a2g0s.8937460.0.0.5f212e0eCOOE88 and now everything is OK. Thank you.
