As per recommendation from a camera salesman, I never attached my KRP lenses to the Z-1p Autofocus camera. It seems that the drive shaft gets locked onto the Ricoh contact.

Does anyone know for sure which K-mount lenses cannot be used on the MZ-series bodies? I've had a Ricoh AR lens (I think) lock onto the mount permanently of one MZ body, but are there other lenses that do the same thing? I'm asking because I have a customer with a Ricoh body that can use the "A" Ricoh lenses, and she has a Vivitar zoom lens for it that she was hoping to use on an MZ body. Did Vivitar, or any other company, make lenses for Ricohs that cannot be used on an MZ body, or was it just Ricoh who made them?
Thanks,
chris
