No, the SLR lenses are a mess of compatibility still (one, two and three cam units as well as the latest ROM units that feature electronic lens/body communication). This is the M lenses, that need a 6bit optical tag to enable certain auto-correction features in the M8. It's essentially a sticker. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
