ARE YOU RETARDED are ARE YOU JUST PLAYING DUMB? because either way you have got to me really dumb to say that since K/M lenses cant do programmed AE (which they don't/cant) , then it makes sense to remove the only AE they do have without cause? That's your postion on the matter? IF it is, you are beyond dumb you are really sick... You have got some major backpeddling or clarifying to do because you have now painted yourself into a corner with your bullheaded stupidity on taking 2 postions that don't agree with each other.. That's called a contradiction. and in this case it's a big one you are pretending doesn't exist. Get real because nobody with half a brain is going ot buy into your BS if you try to argue in opposite directions on the same feature needs and that's exactly what you are doing. JCO

Since K/M lenses on their own do not support programmed AE (they lack the all important "A" setting), I don't see any contradiction. If K/M lenses supported programmed AE, and support for that was dropped, we would have a point of discussion. Meanwhile, you try to create contradictions in your own small, obtuse mind, then call others dumb for not playing your stupid little game. Don't you have a swimming pool to take pictures of?
