I think you'll find that K/M legacy lens support is worse with other manufacturers
than with Pentax.

No Paul, JCO is not alone.
I still own a couple of Pentax film cameras and lenses, they work just
fine, I'll probably keep one of them around for the fun of it, but
there's no more of my money to P. They are going in a direction that's
not exactly to my like, and since they decided I'm "legacy" user to be
halfassed supported I also decided to let them be "legacy" and look
elsewhere.
