Unfortunately that lens has always been a bit wonky as far a metering is

match the Pentax A standard.
I think Pentax gradually improved the accuracy of the mechanism (both
in the camera bodies and in the lenses) over the years. My Vivitar
70-210 is the same version as yours and it's always been a little
sloppy with regard to exposure. I just bracket.

Kinda defeats the purpose of having an "A" mount lens, doesnt it???
