That's too bad, because it's a great camera -- even with K and M lenses. Paul On Sep 15, 2004, at 4:08 PM, J. C. O'Connell wrote:
I know the camera cant do open aperture metering/AE at all based on discussions when the camera came out. That is NOT a good thing. That is a big reason I DON'T own and use one. I don't buy things that don't have what I want/need. JCO

So then you're not familiar with how the istD uses the older lenses, is that correct?

I am very curious as to how the *istD could EVER fully support the K/M
mount lenses when it doesn't have the sorely missed aperture sensing cam, a $10 part found even in the cheapie K1000. Without knowing the relative aperture setting , how can the camera ever do open aperture metering? JCO

I didn't know you were using an *istD, JCO. Mine works fine with K and
M lenses. I use them nearly every day.
