Well I never! Just had to check my K-5 to make sure it's not on there and I just hadn't noticed it - can't see anything, anybody like to point out I'm wrong again?

Now, if they could do 3D-Tracking like Nikon, that would be lovely!

K-5 you said! and so did I now you mention II but I reckon its still there I found it In my K-30 menu and it overides the physical lever to give you Af.a

Id bet my bottom dollar that the K-5 has an Af.a mode just like the K-30 and I think the K-r!

Part time started last year. Two weddings done now on me lonesome, one family photoshoot and a commission piece of "artwork" for someones wall. Bid on a job covering a coporate event but in the end they decided they didnt have the budget for a Photographer shame it would be good to get a foot in that door.

Nothing on the horizon would love to do some natural light portraits....................

Just bought the above sans lens and then read about the open aperture system and it seems that it won't work with all m42 lenses? I am planning to use it with a helios 55mm f2 (has a pin at the back but no A/M setting).

Really want to get out with camera as soon as it arrives do I need a new lens???

Any advice appreciated,

Daniel
