I've mentioned it before on this forum but I'd like to again - The ability to SAVE A LIST of file name prefixes would be great when using M42 and other glass where the K1 doesn't pick up the lens properties. That way when you're quickly swapping out your epic new pentax lenses with your lovely old Pentax, Takumar Leica.. etc. lenses you can just select the preset name from your list which match the lenses you've got, shoot and then you can see which lenses you used for the shot when in post processing. Look if anyone else has a workable solution (not the folder solution which doesn't embed any info in the file name automatically into Lightroom) please let me know.
Thanks guys !

I've done some interesting tests with teleconverters - I used the 60-250 on the K1 - and then used the Pentax 1.4 APS-C on the lens and the Tamron 1.4X Pz-AF MC4 Tele Convertor against the body - giving 1.4 * 1.4 * 250 at the long end - some strange results but then I got this one which stunned me... at f/8 - ISO 800, 1/250 sec. Seems really sharp. I believe the camera is only reporting the pentax converter accurately - so its a stop greater than 8 I believe... The interesting thing is that you get a full frame image as the Tamron converter zooms past the Pentax APS-C vignetting giving you 36 megapixels at around 490mm. With higher ISO settings you get away with some ok shots.
