You can't be serious saying the removal of the aperture simulator is worse than the complete abandonment of a mount.
K/M lenses will still mount to a new Pentax body and you can still take photographs with them. And before you go off and scream at me that Canon improved their mount, I wonder how many FD users at the time felt it was an improvement. They, like you, many not have been interested in the new auto focus technology. All of a sudden Canon's producing new bodies that their legacy lenses won't mount on. Dave On 10/14/06, J. C.
