All you need to do is make sure the body's electrical contacts are all shorted together. I couldn't get trap-focus to work with my 400/5.6 on an extension tube until I scraped the paint off the mount (which is a lot easier than fiddling with bits of metal foil). With a K adaptor you'll have to be sure that the lens is firmly mounted against the contacts, then I guess its the same deal... get rid of any paint on the lens mount where it makes contact with the body's electronic contacts. If its plastic you'll need to glue some foil to it. Cheers, - Dave David A. Mann, B.E.
