Yes, this lens only autofocuses on the ME-F, but it will work on a MF lens
on other Pentaxes.  I suggest you take a look here, for information on the
contacts and how to test the focusing:

Hi,
  
I'm back since a long time (beginning of this year).
Can anybody help me with the following: I just got myself the first AF lens
from Pentax the 35-70mm. It was cheap while the former owner considered it
as the AF is not functioning. AFAIK the AF does only work when the lens is
mounted on the MEF camera. Is that true? If yes, how can I test if the AF
is working without having the MEF available?
  
What is the value of such a lens if it is in good working order and undamaged?
  
Regards,
  
Wim van Heugten
