Hi Folks:
I'm new to this list. Along with some other brand cameras, I've been shooting with a Pentax ZX-5n. Since I have a bunch of AF lenses for it, I'm thinking of getting the *isD for digital work.
I also have some Spotmatics with a bunch of lenses as well and would like to use some of those screw mount lenses on the digital camera.
If screw mount lenses are used on the D, is metering available? When I handled a D at a camera store several months ago I was told that there wasn't any metering possible for those lenses... but then I later heard that some sort of software upgrade had been made available. Is this true?
Also, can anyone here tell me if one can use screw mounts on the DS?
Other than the price difference, is there a reason to get the DS?
Thanks in advance,
Jim Hemenway
