Not that I use K and M lenses a lot. But isn't a mechanical thing, that transferes the info anout the lens aperture setting to the camera - a thing of the past. IMO it's not very likely that Pentax will make the cameras more expensive in order to accomodate a few hundred users of old lenses? Wouldn't it be more natural if this informaton about the lens aperture setting, was transferred to the camera body/lightmeter by using a electrical contact? This is actually what the KA lenses do, right? So, an aperture simulator is only needed for K and M-lenses, right? So what we really need is a device that will add the contacts to K- and M-lenses! On the other hand, I kinda miss the option to set the lens manyally (for flash photography etc.) in order to make sure the aperture setting STAYS in the right position and not by mistakedly gets knocked off. Would it be possible to mount a KA mount connected to the aperture ring setting on these lenses? This way, only those who wants this, have to pay for it. Anyway, that's not really my problem, is it? Heck, put me on the lsit as well.
