There are some who swore they would never buy another body until a
full-frame, weather-sealed, apeture simulated one became available.
So, the "aperture simulator" is just that little lever at about the
2:00 position on the K-1000's lens mount that hooks into Pentax-M lens
to tell the camera what aperture is selected.
Bingo. Now just to clarify that it's important, Boz, actually posted
that he intended to shoot Nikon or Cannon rather than Pentax when that
little doohickey was removed. So it's not just the lunatic fringe that
was disturbed.
You're talking about a guy who, just for kicks and grins, keeps and updates
a website documenting everything ever made by a company he (as far as I
know) has no affiliation with, even though he no longer uses their products.
If he's not part of the "lunatic fringe," no one is.
