Originally posted by germar What happens when I use a SMC A series lens on a K2 body and the lens is set to "A?" I recently put a SMCA 50 1.4 on a K2 body and I noted that the meter behaved differently between "A" and a manually set f-stop, with the "A" setting reading about 2 stops wider. I did not fire the camera for fear of initiating the apocalypse. I know using the A lens on a K2 body is okay as long as I select manual f-stops, but what would happen if I left the lens on automatic? Would it just shoot wide open?
Just a curiosity, sorry if this is common knowledge.
Good thing you didn't fire it. It does in-fact initiate the apocalypse.
But seriously...I think it would stop all the way down, not wide-open.
