No joke, no magic, but you will need that screwmount to K mount adapter on the front of the Pentax 1.7x AF Adapter. It works by moving a small lens in the 1.7x adapter. Put your screwmount lens on the front of the adapter. Focus it to somewhere near in-focus. The AF camera motor will spin, moving the little lens back and/or forth and bring the image into focus. You get AF with a screwmount lens... only with your Pentax can you get 40 year old lenses to autofocus! Regards, Bob S.
