You don't want to do something that if it fails will damage you camera.

Without doing it I can only use the lens wide open, because the new
cameras have no way of actuating the stop down rod at the time of
exposure. If the rod is pushed in permanently then the aperture ring
actually stops the lens down. That way I can use it at all the f
stops, metering at taking aperture on Manual mode (on the istD). I
probably could use it in Av mode too...hmm...
I'm thinking of trying to push it in and then sticking some wax in the
hole. If it holds it ought to be reversible.

I'm just curious, Alan. Why do you want to do that?

I've got a couple of SM lenses with the little push rod arrangement
for stopping the lens down. Is there a simple solution to keeping it
pushed in when using the lens with a screw to K mount adapter?
