Alright. I haven't got a K-70, but I've just been skimming through the manual... I've got a list of settings here, go through them all and make sure they're set to that.
- Custom Menu 'Catch-in Focus' set to 'On'
- Camera Menu - under 'Button Customization', set 'AF/AE-L' to 'Enable AF1'
- Physical AF Switch set to AF
- AF mode set as AF.S
- AF.S Setting to 'Focus Priority'
- AF Active Area set to the center point
If those are all good to go, focus your manual lens (which the Laowa is) so that under the center focus point is out of focus. When you press the shutter button now, no picture should be taken. If that's the case, while holding the shutter button down, turn the focus ring and the camera should take the photo once the center point is focused.
Hopefully this gets it working, as catch-in-focus is a useful tool to have
