Check use of aperture is enabled in the menu.
Set the dial to "M".
Set the aperture you want. e.g. f8
focus
press the green button to meter the scene.
Refocus and press the shutter
If it mounted on the K-7 is should be OK on others. e.g. manual lenses I've tried on GX10 (K10d) also worked on GX20, K-7, k-5.
Thanks a lot, I'll give that a try.Lilliz wrote:

If it works with the K10D it'll work with any Pentax dSLR.

Thanks K. I would have thought so myself, but I took it to a camera shop and the guy fitted it on a k7 and told me it wasn't compatible, so i wasn't sure.[quote:3496ace15f="Lilliz"][quote:3496ace15f="flat4"]

A Makinon MC 135/2,8 prime manual lens. I was really stunned when testing it. A great bokeh, sharp wide open with beautiful contrast and colour tone. Although this isn't really a pentax made lens I would be really happy if someone would share some information about this lens with me.
I guess that lens coating makes the difference in colour tones as I had the same settings set on my K200D?
Did you use the makinon lens on the K200? I have an old Auto Makinon 135mm f/2.8 Macro , I know it works with the k10d but i could not find any to buy so I wondered if it works with the K200D, If it does, do I need some sort of mount?A Makinon MC 135/2,8 prime manual lens.

Hi all- am the proud owner of the whole kit
All seems in very good condition- will be trying out the k10 & 17-70 this weekend, but probably will be selling those on (was mainly interested in the FA50- need brighter/higher iso for my shooting). All offers via PM gladly received.
Cheers all

The kit has been received (early afternoon). Very well packed I must say. All items included. I'm gonna give it a test run tomorrow.
Thanks a lot.
