The power zoom motor will function but the other options such as snap zoom to return to a preset focal length, image size tracking which zoomed as your focus point changed to keep the subject framed. And zoom through the focal length range during exposure, plus returning the lens to shortest configuration at power down are all lost. Pentax never supported the PZ camera functions in their DSLRs although this was promised for the K10D
That's getting a little tedious, that Pentax promises support for something, then don't deliver. PZ in the K10D, Astrotracker for the K-01 - what else has they promised, then failed to deliver in the promised bodies?
I've always been curious as to power zoom myself, what's the real use of it? It's not like turning the zoom-ring is that hard, so it can't be that......
