At least the Pentax K and M lenses are usable, granted with restrictions, on
the *ist D. This is more than can be said about 20-30 year old Canon lenses
on their DSLR's

I once had a manager that refused to go partying on New Year's Eve. She
called it amateur night.
We'll be bringing in the new year at a friends home.
New Year's day dinner will be ham hocks and black eyed peas, boiled cabbage
and cornbread.

I have no doubt you are correct. I'm only saying that Pentax didn't totally
change their mount and that they are more compatible with their older lenses
than Canon. According to my Pentax rep, FWIW, there was a technical reason
for dropping the aperture coupler.

It's those wanting to use new lenses on old bodies.
Actually, when using a zoom without a constant aperture value, using the
aperture ring is a real pain since the aperture changes as you zoom.
