Ajay,
You can use all genuine Pentax lenses on the digital bodies without any problems
The "F" and "FA" just work.
The "A" series are manual focus
In all cases, you should leave the lens aperture ring set to "A" for best compatibility with the DSLR. (You can use the "M" and "K" series manual lenses, but metering is a bit trickier, requiring you to do "stop down metering".)
That's one of the wonderful things about Pentax gear
