I would suggest - don't worry about it.
You don't lose it But metering can be compromised some what.
Simply learn how much and adjust according to the lens you are using.
Fast lenses don't have problem.
If the K-3 meters after focus there really should never be a problem.
I would have thought metering should always happen after focus.
Otherwise the meter doesn't know what light it is seeing.
Again...
It's a matter of learning the advantages and deficiencies of your gear.
Then working within these boundaries.
This will never change.
