Sorry, But the knob is only in it's holding place on the bottom, you have to move it to the side to use it. Sorry I wasn't more clear.
The 67 & K adapters do not allow auto metering, you must use stop-down metering. I have never tried to figure the lens comparisons from format to format. It's hard for my old brain to remember the 35 verses 645 straight accross. (ie; 645 lens on 645 body.)

Matter of fact, I thought that little plate was supposed to hold a battery until I checked on it. However, based on what somenoe said in the previous message, the bottom tripod socket does have the additional hole that's directly in line and BEHIND the socket, as does the side tripod socket. So, if that's teh "accessory for stabilization," then I'm really lost as to what this thing on the side is.. Another question.. I've read there's adapters to use 67->645 lenses, and then there's adapters for 645->K mount. A 75mm 645 lens mounted on a 645 has the same angle of view as a 50mm 135 lens mounted on a 135 body. If I mount a 75mm 645 lens on a 135 body, I presume I'll have the same angle of view as a 75mm 135 lens, yes? Do things like auto aperature work with an adapter, or do I have to do stopped down aperature metering (I know, that's the incorrect term)?
