Yes, but they only release the shutter. Not sure if it focuses first though.

yes they do but looking at that photo they have mixed the "N" and "P" around possibly.

Pentax only fires the shutter. Nothing else.

Still.... they do work fine. I have one.

I have a similar el cheapo. It's a universal trigger (eg: fires various brands) but as Pentax has only designed their cameras to focus and shoot by remote, most of the trigger's features are redundant. Nevertheless, it does everything the genuine Pentax trigger would do (which is not much anyway).

Focusing is triggered on the camera itself, independent of what remote you use. So yes, your camera will focus prior to shooting.
