I believe that if you use M-42 lenses on a K2, K2DMD, ME, and the LX, the AE is easier than that on the *ist D. Those cameras will "sense" the change in light and accordingly will adjust the shutter speed for it. If you have to continually press the green button for changing conditions, it becomes toilsome.
No more toilsome than pressing the shutter button halfway down for the focus to kick in!

Interesting that you should mention the screwmounts, Antonio. (It was actually in your last post, but I already deleted it.) For the very fact that it doesn't have the stop down cam, the *istD supports screwmount lenses better than any of the K-mount cameras have for the last quarter century. A screwmount lens will work just as nicely as a k or m lens. In fact, I think I'll go out and shoot some digital pics with my Super Takumar 35/3.5. Sounds like a fun Saturday project. Paul
