I was thinking of a new lens used on an old body such as my PZ-1p. In any case, I'm sure that bodies don't know everything about all possible lenses (especially lenses designed after the body was released), so there's always the possibility a lens might end up getting a signal to activate a function that lens doesn't support. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
