Correct , the FL input is only for S/R and if you have it turned off it does not matter what you have entered.
A warning though. If you switch to another "old" lens, you need to make sure you have the correct FL set. i once switched from a 300mm to a 50mm lens and didnt check. My pictures were horribly overcompensated and shakey as hell.
On my K10 if I switch the camera on while the SR button is on, then I get prompted to enter a FL. But If I switch the camera on with SR off, and then switch SR on, it just uses the SR setting that I previously entered.
