Looks like that s the case. I'm used to the other camera which gives me these
numbers in
the file. Just
a tiny
that are off by 2-3 stops! :-(
Automatic flash mode works much better IMHO.
Auto did give me a nicer photo last night.

In other words, it's normal. Stick the lens on A and set the aperture
from the body if you want the aperture recorded.
Thanks Steve.

If the camera could record the f stop the lens was set to when the lens
wasn't set to A, then it could also meter properly.
I know that F and FA lenses supply the camera with that information, but
Pentax apparently didn't equip the camera with
the capability to read it.

No,same price. I thought you got it when it was $1699.00.
Great price. Everyone else is still at $1899.
I find it a bit small for my hands to,but its something i can be happy with.
May get the

It couldn't, as it predates the F/FA lenses and their protocols :-)
I have no idea whether the SF cameras behave similarly or
The same is true for the PZ-1 and PZ-1p with FA
lenses--the aperture set on the lens shows up in the
viewfinder just fine.
...well, except with the FA 28-80/3.5-4.7 (power
zoom), in which case the aperture in the viewfinder is
about a stop off (even though exposure is fine). Go
figure.

I can confirm that:
My Z1 does not detect aperture with my Tamron 28mm 2.5 with KA adapter
but does with ma FA 50mm 1.4. This is with aperture ring not on A of course.

Not true in general. If you use an F or FA lens with the -5n, you get
the aperture on the viewfinder even in Av mode (which is done from the
lens in that camera, not the body). I would guess that's also true for
the MZ-S.
Hi William
my Pentax SFXn only shows the aperture *in the LCD* when the lens is set to
A position, otherwise not.
