14127 OR 14167 and 16464/OTZFO.    The lens head screws into the 16464,
which then fits to the 16427, and the whole shebang fits into the R camera.

A 14167 is around $200, but a used 14127 or 14167 will run around $50 to
$75.  An OTZFO will run around $75 to $100.  But both can be found more
cheaply with some hunting around.
