What checks do you need?
If you take the Pentax-A lens out of "A" mode and use it fully manually, with the new firmware does the "green button" stop-down metering work properly with the aperture ring at various f-stops?
Similarly, with an M42 lens in place, which will not make contact with the electrical contacts in the mount, does green-button mode work properly?
With the camera in Av mode with an M42 lens in place, does Av metering work properly at various f-stops?
If the camera works properly with M42 lenses when tested as above, does it do so accurately (without the need for exposure compensation like some older bodies require)?
Thanks.
