It appears (I base my opinion on Harold's report) that the *ist works with the K-mount lenses more or less like the MZ-50 (although in more "messy" way). So it's not as bad as the MZ-30 (not to mention the MZ-60). However, I need the camera that works with such lenses without complications, because for example I cover (or going to cover) various unusual focal lenghts with russian lenses (Zenitar 16/2,8 Fisheye, Mir 20/3,5, Arsat 35/2,8 Shift etc) - I just can't afford the orginal ones by Pentax. But that's no problem - most of the Pentax cameras do fine for me. I was just curious... As I said - I'm waiting for the MZ-5n/3 successor Regards Artur
