I just found out with the help of a great friend that I can use a manual focus lense on my Pentax ist* dl and the camera will tell me when the focal point is in focus. This is really going to make my lba worse than it has been.

I'm sorry about your new found LBA Jim, but happy that you can use most lenses now

That offer for my 50mm still stands if you want.

Thanks Stu, let me first see what happens with the Ebay auction.

It is a handy guide, but don't trust it completely with an important shot!
