Then why was it avail on the $100 K-1000 for years??? DIRT CHEAP .. All it is is a simple cam that tells the body how many stops less light the exposure will have vs. wide open reading. Nothing fancy. X number of stops per degree of rotation.... VERY SIMPLE. You repeatedly thinks this needs tons of R&D. It doesnt. The "Digital" thingy has you very confused.... Face it they have screwed the K/M owners no matter how you slice it....

John, stop pulling numbers out of your ass. If you want to bitch about this, get your facts striaght. Find out how much it really would cost per unit to include compatability for K lenses. Make sure it includes all the costs too, from extra R&D right down the line to mark-ups to the end user. If you think it's $10.00, you really have your head jammed pretty far up your ass.
