The Pentax forums are by far the best in the world. I can always find info that is relevant to what I am looking for. I just bought an old K-1000 and it came with 6 lenses, most of which are older. Some of the lenses are actual Pentax lenses, but a few are off-brand. There is even a Canon lens. They are all K-mount lenses, but when I put some of them on I am getting the F-- on my K-5. So I have 2 questions:
1. Can using any of these lenses damage my K-5?
2. What am I not doing that is keeping some of these lenses from working? I have it on manual mode and manual focus is on.
Thanks
EDIT--ok so the above link from ilan gave me some good info. I get why they aren't working.
