Don't you understand that this is a key turning point for pentax? They always had a backward compatiblity support when it was Easy and cost effective to do so and it still is. They have Now flip-flopped and are screwing customers by not supporting Features ON PURPOSE when they still easily could. That means You cant trust them anymore and even if you buy new lenses Today they might abandon them shortly too just to get you To rebuy again for no reason. This isnt just one little metering Issue, its their whole policy and loyal customer support they Are abandoning... jco

Honestly, I don't think you'll ever see another 35mm-style k-mount Pentax body with an aperture simulator. Ever. Even the last film body they produced didn't have it. Pentax is done with it. Period. Now... If only you guys could just get over it. BooHoo, I can't use my old lenses the way I want to. Pentax doesn't give a shit about you. They are looking, oh yeah that's right, ahead. To the future. New lenses, new features. The past? Well that's just the past and good on 'em for finally stepping it up and producing interesting things and trying to compete for my $$. -- Christian http://photography.skofteland.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
