A little more info, if it helps.
I purchased one of these from a forum member here a couple of years ago with it's second faulty SDM. It was a good price for a manual focus lens with great glass. I tried covering the two power contacts with tape, attached it to my KP and gave it a whirl.
In regular, optical viewfinder mode, nothing. Just like normal. In live view though, it works as a screwdrive lens! I tried it on my K-01 and, it doesn't like it. The screen flashes, can't change settings, kind of just locked up. Only these two bodies were tried so I don't have any other info but others here can give it a try to see what happens. It seems to have two speeds in live view on my KP. It usually racks back and forth very slowly on the first AF try but it does go fast once it focuses on something.

I've been photograhing since a smelly darkroom in the 80's. Got my first DSLR, the K10d back in February, 2007. Dragged ass so didn't upgrade until the K-01 was down to $300 last year and haven't looked back. All of my manual focus lenses have never been happier.
