> What are the differences between these various lenses ? Check it out at http://kmp.bdimitrov.de/ There's a detailed info on the K-mount evolution which is exactly, what you want to know. To put it VERY shortly: K and M series lenses are MF, A is MF too but with the "A" setting on the aperture ring, F and FA are AF with FA being electronically most advanced of all series... > I'm looking at the 400mm for nature shots. I dont have an AF body. Then there's no use to buy either F or FA series lenses... If you have a body with Ka-mount (A-series or P-series) or MZ-M (Ka2-mount), then the best way is to get A-series lenses, since they give you the P and Av feature... But whatever you get, it'll work:)) ... for it's Pentax:))) For example, I often use my SMC FA 80-200mm f/4,7-5,6 on my Program A (though I have an MZ-7 too:)) Greetz Artur - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
