sounds like no continous aperture priority or open aperture
metering, just a 1-shot stop down metering/AE.  while much better
than the initial offering, still not really a full support
of K/M lenses IMHO. Guess we'll have to wait for the "D2"
model to get back up to the 1975 technological levels of the "K"
film bodies.....

Set the body at M mode
ste the aperture ring to the desired value
Push the "green" button
the body close the  diaphragm to preset aperture
then it take exposure metering, and set shutter speed to apropriate setting
the body re-open the diapragm to full aperture
