What's wrong with this picture?

My curiosity was kindled on another thread when someone said this would work...



This is possible with an adapter (quite nicely made, actually) from B&H. I have not yet run a roll through it yet, but I've noted some interesting things needed to make it work and how the metering works. I'll share if others show any interest.

There are a zillion of these A-1 bodies out there gathering dust, I wonder how the images will be shot with Pentax glass over the original FD lenses.

Not trying to get flamed (I don't thing we're that type of crowd anyway) but I figure this was an oddity some would like to see.

Anyone interested in more info?

regards,

germar
