Thanks David, this is all I wanted to know I guess.
Thanks a lot.

I must admit my ignorance but I'd like to know what the T2 consists in, notably diameter as I've retrieved a lens that doesn't fit anything I know. Googling was no use, I keep bumping into offers for T2 adaptors but no real definition or specifications seem to be available. 

Thanks very much in anticipation

Hi Philippe!
I don't know the specs for a T2 adapter, but the thread is very close to the Pentax/Pentacon screw thread ... but not quite right. The adapters consist of an inner ring, with T2 thread, and an outer adapter, which slips over the ring. This adapter can have any mount known to man.
See Karen Nakamura's page, on this, at: http://www.photoethnography.com/ClassicCameras/index-frameset.html?Lens-adapters.html~mainFrame <http://www.photoethnography.com/ClassicCameras/index-frameset.html?Lens-adapters.html%7EmainFrame> 

Hope this helps.

Cheers!
