There may be a reason(s) they don't want the camera to function with no lens attached; personally I agree with you and I'd like to be able to control it.

However 'til they change things, you'll find that using foil tape works well.

Plain old aluminum foil works well too!

In my experience with a K-x, it is the DATA pin which must be shorted for your purposes.


I use adhesive backed aluminum foil (Aluminum Duct Tape) and usually cover the whole lens base - it'll last longer & look better.
