Autoreflex lenses

Am I right that the lens mount has changed from Autoreflex to T-Series? According my opinion I can use later lenses with Autoreflex but no Autoreflex lens with T3. Is the metering system of Autoreflex correct with the leses for T-Series?

Rainer,

Whilst the lens mount is the same from Auto Reflex onwards, there is a subtle dirrerence in the lens' coupling mechanism that makes the very earliest Auto Reflex lenses not suitable for use on later models. Specifically, this relates to the shape of the fixed "blade" on the rear of the lens. All but the very earliest lenses have a notch cut out of this.
