Did I break something, or did Pentax?

2019-04-08 Thread Larry Colen
I have a few manual aperture lenses in my collection.  For various 
reasons I haven't used them in a while.  I just tried to put them on my 
K-1 and they won't stop down on it.  They don't seem to stop down on my 
K-3 II either.  They do work on my K-3.


Is there a configuration option I missed?  Are my cameras broken?  Did 
Pentax just break that feature?

Thanks Brian.

It was more complicated than it looks, had to insert two small LED lights
into the soundbox, reflecting the harsh light off the wood to make it warmer
and put the camera on a tripod to allow f/32 for depth of field :)

I was suprised this was the only musical instrument in the gallery though ...
