KX with 28mm manual lens problem

bjake · 12-15-2011, 11:37 AM

When I put my CPC M type 28mm on my KX it acts crazy and don't take pictures.Any movement with any control makes the camera make a shutter clicking sound.When release is pressed it clicks like it is taking multiple exposures.Don't remember this happening with other lens.Am thinking some setting may be off but I can't find it as I don't know where to look.Need to use this lens later this afternoon.
Thanks,
Jake

This one might contain a solution? https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/pentax-dslr-discussion/167755-lens-flop-kx.html

And do a search for mirror flop.

Went threw the thread you suggested,seems like there is not a solution.Found I can use the lens in AV mode without problems.
Thanks,
Jake
