I have a question for the engineers on the list. Given all the talk lately about the crippled mount and whether Pentax will drop the mechanical aperture coupling on the Kaf3 mount, would it be possible to design a device, similar to a tele-converter, that would take the info from the mechanical coupling of a pre-A lens, convert it to electrical info that would be fed to the correct pins so that the metering system on the camera knew the correct aperture? You could use optical elements to regain infinity focus. Would this solve most of the crippled mount problems.
Pentax. If you are listening and use this idea I want a large MP full frame DSLR as compensation (when you come out with one) <VBG> BUTCH Each man had only one genuine vocation - to find the way to himself. Hermann Hess (Damien)
