A lens mount is an interface —mechanical and often also electrical —between a photographic camera body and a lens. It is confined to cameras where the body allows interchangeable lenses, most usually the single lens reflex type or any movie camera of 16 mm or higher gauge. A lens mount is also found on a lens accessory like a teleconverter or an extension tube, which goes in between a lens and a camera.

A lens mount may be a screw-in type, a bayonet-type, or a friction lock type. Modern still camera lens mounts are of the bayonet type, because of the need to have mechanical and electrical contacts in position to meet those on the body. Creating screw threads of the necessary precision, across many camera and lens manufacturers, is too troublesome.
Bayonet mounts generally have a number of tabs (often three) around the base of the lens, which fit into appropriately sized recesses in the lens mounting plate on the front of the camera. The tabs are often "keyed" in some way to ensure that the lens is only inserted in one orientation, often by making one tab a different size. Once inserted the lens is fastened by turning it a small amount. It is then locked in place by a spring-loaded pin, which can be operated to remove the lens. A bayonet mount A bayonet mount before and after insertion A bayonet mount or bayonet connector is a fastening mechanism that relies on mated surfaces; a male side with one or more pins or slots, and a female receptor with matching slots and a spring that maintains a clamping force. ...
Lens mounts of competing manufacturers (Nikon, Canon, Contax/Yashika, Pentax, etc.) are almost always incompatible. Many allege that this is due to the desire of manufacturers to "lock in" consumers to their brand. However, since there are other differences between manufacturers -- specifically the flange focal distance from the lens mount to the film or sensor -- one would not want to mount a lens which wasn't specifically designed for their type of camera, at least not without an adapter to correct the spacing. The flange focal distance (also known as the flange-to-film distance, flange focal depth, or register, depending on the usage and source) of a lens mount for an interchangeable lens camera system is one of its most fundamental attributes. ...
In movie cameras, the two most popular mounts in current usage on professional 35 mm cameras are Arri's PL mount and Panavision's PV mount. The Panavision mounts are exclusively used with Panavision lenses, and thus are only available on Panaflex cameras or third-party cameras "Panavised" by a Panavision rental house, whereas the PL mount style is favored with most other cameras and cine lens manufacturers. Both of these mounts are held in place with locating pins and friction locking rings. Other mounts which are now largely historical or a minority in relation to current practices are listed below. 35 mm film frames. ...
