In manual mode, the *ist D does stop down a K or M lens (or A/F/FA
lenses that are not in "A" position). Only it does not meter. It is in
Av mode (metered!) that a K or M lens (or A/F/FA lenses that are not in
"A" position) does not get stopped down but stays wide open all the time
(unless one unlocks the lens and turns it 15 degrees anti-clockwise, so
that one gets stopping down and real aperture metering).

So if the Nikon D100 will stop down an MF lens in manual mode (no
meter), then it's actually a step ahead of the *istD, which won't even
stop down an MF Pentax K-mount lens. That's sad.
