Exactly. I do that on my K7. Works fine if you are not rushed to get the shot.

Sorry for troubeling you guys.
I found out. In the K-3 menu it's a litte bit more complicated - but I
can somehow choose the Tv Shift option - the use the green button for
dertermining the "correct" exposuere:

MENU:
In C4 set the option 27 to 2.
In Camera 4 choose the third option 2 to M Tv Shift.

A little cumbersome - but it works
Noew I can use the green button to set the shutter speed for a chosen
Aperture.

Hope the K-1 isn't even more cumbersome - the full frame camera will
make You/me  use even more old lenses from the 35mm film days...:-)

Regards
Jens

Hello
Inspired by "Pentaxians" -  a Facebook Group, I bought a Pentax-K 2.8
120mm lens. It's supposed to be excellent according to Pentaxforums.com
(rated 10).
But now I can't get i t to work properly.
I did  set the "Pentax Function" to "Other than A" - shutter will
release, disregarded the apeture is not set to A.


But the Aperture is only stopping down in M - Manual Mode.

Did I miss something?
Does the K-3 not have an aperture simulator????
Which Pentax camera was the last one to be equiped with one?

Is there anything I can do to make it work in Aperture Priority mode?

Or - how do I measure light - determin the "right" exposure?

Thanks in advance

Jens, Denmark
