I'd love to show you a picture but it comes out black unless I slow my shutter speed down to at least 1 second. My ISO is at 6400 and my aperture is wide open at 22. I took a picture of a light to show you how dark it is. My 28mm and 55mm work great, I just need to play around with aperture and shutter speed, but I'm getting decent picture quality.

Hope the picture helps illustrate what I mean.

I'm brand new to the world of DSLR but have owned and been shooting an old Pentax MV with several lenses for about 3-4 years. I just bought the k-x model and am excited that I can still use my lenses from my MV. I've read through the instructions and a few threads, but I'm having trouble with my Zoom 80-200mm lens. All the pictures come out black or under exposed no matter what I do. I can slow the shutter speed right down, and use the highest ISO and still black. My other lenses 50mm and 28mm both work great. I'm having trouble only with the Zoom. I've tried different focal lengths but still nothing will show up on the LCD.

I know I just got it today and should be a little more patient but I really like using my zoom lens.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
