At least with SAE threads a thread count per inch is specified! If metric threads have similar diameters but different thread pitches, they at least ought to call it out in the spec.

Guys problem solved the threading wasn´t the problem. Its the threading that is farther away from the lens in the type 2 thus leaving space between case baseand lens allowing it to screw on, in the type 1 the threading is closer to the lens not allowing space to screw on as the lens makes direct contact to front base of casing not being able to screw it on for lack of space. These are used for older cams as told buy the shop. Anyway glad that got solved. Thanks for the replys m8-s
Although this no longer applies to the situation in the thread, just thought you might want to know. Metric has 2 different common threads and are labeled as pitch in mm. For example an 8mm diameter bolt can have a 1.25 thread or a 1.0 thread. They are usually labeled in the USA as "course" and "fine" as every size uses the actual size in mm of the thread. For example a 16mm diameter bolt can have a 2 thread or a 1.5 thread.
10,12,18, 20,& 22mm all have 3 different threads, just to add to the confusion.
