It's a little tougher Shel, I understand where you're coming from, but I
was only relatively good at that with ASA 400 Tri-x. The *ist-D[x]
series of cameras is too versatile and I suspect the sensor is much
more variable in response to various lighting situations than film was.

Well, there IS ANOTHER WAY to work with these LENSES, but I'd suggest that
MOST people using a Pentax DSLR will not choose to use it for any NUMBER of
reasons. The heck with using the camera's BUILT IN meter. Take time to
understand the LIGHT and the way the sensor works, and just shoot without
using a meter. MUCH FASTER, much simpler, and, when one gets GOOD at it,
at least as accurate and, arguably, more so in some SITUATIONS. I'm sure
this idea will not fly very far on this list.

Excuse me but DUH- there is no other way with these
DSLRS with K/M lenses. Of course you do.
I think you assumption might be correct because
they have *** No Other Choice *** but to work that way
with K/M?

So in summary, even though I think it would have been nicer to have
full K/M support, the green button kludge/hyper manual method of using
K/M is good enough for me because that is how I work anyway. I
wouldn't be surprised if quite a few others feel as I do.
