Fiting a lens to a CCD

I have an old (USB 1) SX HX916 which I think would make quite a good guidecamera if fitted with a lens. It has what I think is the old Pentax thread nosepiece (42x1 thread I believe) and was wondering whether anyone else had succeeded in mounting a lens direct to a CCD such as this. It seems a shame to waste such a sensitive camera when it will otherwise just sit in the scrap heap.
