Yes when looking through the viewfinder, it does get dimmer. It actually gets really dim at some points. Is this what's suppose to happen?

Alright I'll try that. The weird thing is that when I attach my 50mm lense everything works just fine.

Yeah I've been messing with it a bit more, it seems that this its extremely sensitive to light with that lense on though. Today it's mostly sunny and I've got it set to f/16 and even at 1/500 or 1/1000 I can barely get the light meter to a good exposure.
I'm new to 28mm lenses, so maybe that's the way it's suppose to be.

The adapter that I'm using is a genuine Pentax adapter. Would the adapter not being attached just right cause a problem with the light meter?

The issue persists even when the Manual selection is on.

I'm having an issue when I use a Takumar 1:3.5 28mm M42 lense on my Pentax K1000. The light meter stays in the (+) position until the shutter speed is switched to the (B) position. Then it starts reacting to aperture adjustment. When I switch the lense back to my 50mm K-mount lense, everything works just fine.
Any ideas?
