How come I don't see my name on this list?

Heliotrope · 06-08-2013, 05:09 PM

I am positive for this.

Pentax would be opening up the digital realm even more with wonderful older lenses, bringing new generations world-reknowned high-quality optics at excellent values, values that will carry over into their customer base maintaining a Pentax/K system. There's no drastic economic reason why this could not be, as they do not any longer retail the K-M lenses, this meager addition would increase the absolute value of their bodies and re-affirm the forward-thinking dedication to making sincere photographic systems.

+1 for me. Pentax really needs to tout the fact that you can use all old lenses, and make that as easy as possible if they want to sell more bodies under current conditions.

Heisenberg · 09-07-2013, 04:57 PM

I bought my K-5 under the pretense that it was compatible with older lenses, and was very dissapointed to see that there was this major limitation. Please add me to the list.

GibbyTheMole · 09-07-2013, 06:17 PM

+1... Absolutely. There's no reason why it shouldn't be "de-crippled". Count me in!
