I wouldn't expect a straight answer out of a camera shop either. For K-mount lenses without contacts, you need to do one or more of the following steps: 1. Upgrade the firmware (*istD) 2. Set the custom menu function that allows the shutter to release with a non-A lens (same option that makes screwmount lenses work). 3. Set the camera to M mode (manual exposure) 4. Use either the green button (*istD/K10D) or the AE-lock (DS/DS2/DL/DL2/K100D/K110D) to stop down the lens and meter. -Mat -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
