Hi Arnold,
 Just for simplification (simple minds need that), if I were to put a
K mount on the Starkist D, set the camera to AV, I will get
metering wide open?
 If I set the camera to full manual I get no metering, but the camera
will stop down the lens? If that`s the case shooting static images
are not a problem as you could snap off a frame and check the
LCD and make adjustments for proper exposure as Graywolf
explained.
