Wow:)! Can you give some details on it? It's very important to me since I'm
going to get a Z-1p soon and read that it doesn't support the focus
confirmation feature for m42 lenses and I'd like to mount my MIR 20mm on the
camera...
All you need to do is make sure the body's electrical contacts are all shorted
together. I couldn't get trap-focus to work with my 400/5.6 on an extension
tube until I scraped the paint off the mount (which is a lot easier than fiddling
with bits of metal foil).
With a K adaptor you'll have to be sure that the lens is firmly mounted against
the contacts, then I guess its the same deal... get rid of any paint on the lens
mount where it makes contact with the body's electronic contacts. If its plastic
you'll need to glue some foil to it.
