Welcome Sunny. The DL will work fine with all pentax 50mm lenses. Any
lenses that do not have an "A" setting (M and K lenses) will work also,
but you are going to have to set the camera to manual and allow it to
use such lenses, which should be in your user's manual. Sigma lenses
made for pentax should also work. Canon lenses will not work however.

Hi I just recently bought a ist* DL and have been using it for a
couple months...
Although now I wish I had the DS2, but it wasn't out then.
Anyway, I'm interested in buying a fast 50mm fixed lens, but I'm not
sure which ones are compatible.
I don't know what all the letters in front of the lens names mean and
which ones will work with mine.
I read something about apature rings being set to 'A' but could not
fully comprehend it.
Also I was wondering if other brands like sigma or even canon lenses
were compatible with
my ist* DL. Any information would help me a great deal, thanks. I
hope this is the way this digest
works, because I just signed up and have no clue how things run around here.
