They're fully compatible with the DSLR bodies with respect to all
auto-exposure modes.
The SMC Pentax-A 28mm f/2.8 lens is a wonderful little lens. It's
small and light, slightly soft until stopped down to f/4 but has
wonderful bokeh. It was the first Pentax lens I used when I purchased
the *ist DS body in 2004.
Hmm. Now it's sounding more interesting. I just purchased a *ist DS. May not be
able to tell the difference between soft and sharp, but at this point would
prefer sharp.
Is this one in a series of lenses, i.e., are their Pentax-As o other focal
lengths?
