Originally posted by Laurentiu Cristofor The A setting works for me. But the aperture ring doesn't have any lock on the A position, so if it slides off that position, it works as a K lens.
Are you certain the lens communicates with the camera body? To my understanding, this lens isn't a PKA lens, despite the A setting on the aperture ring because there are no electrical contacts. On my lens, slots for the electrical contacts are there but vacant. Unless the lens is modded to be a PKA lens, this lens just works like any K or M series lens that requires use of the green button to establish exposure.
Rear lens mount of my Mitakon 85mm f/2. Aperture lever is visible but no electrical contacts in place.
