Would old Pentax lenses send a correct aperture information to the modern K5 body?

I loved the Super-A for its small form factor, versatility and features (it even had a lever to close the diaphragm to the selected number so you could check DOF). I have 3 glasses, but they're not AF and are rated for FF, so I'm not sure how they'll perform on a new K-5. They say it sports a very good sensor, but it's also true the availability of lenses is very low, worse in Europe. I got the Nikon for compatibility at work with the endoscopic optics adapter, which had a Nikon mount. They lost the adapter, so the Nikon didn't get much use. Fact is that I enjoyed a lot going out to hunt pics, but for several reasons, being two of them the 36mm film being in disappearance, and the low quality of digital photos years ago. But now things are way different, hence my query. Thanks for replying Aerius Hadn't ready your post Reks. Thanks. Looks like I mistook the 18-200 VRII for other of the kit zoom lenses they include with the D5001 and D3001 bodies. I've found a better price for the D700 body. Since I'm not in a hurry I could wait for a new "entry level" FF by Nikon. Any expected features that make worth the wait and probable price increase?

Let's see what the case photo experts would take: - Nikon D300S body at 1262 euros. I could use it with an old AF Nikkor 35-80mm 1:4-5.6D that came with a F70 which is 14 years old now. I know the lens isn't very good, so other lenses may be considered. - Nikon D7000 + AFS 18-200VR II kit at 1513 euros. Good reviews but concerned for the overexposing comments. The lens isn't very good for what I've read, so perhaps it's a better idea going for the body and considering another lens. - Canon 60D + 18-135IS at 1123 euros. Despite Nikon is better regarded than Canon over here, for the pics I've seen I might end up liking the Canon's "warmth" better. Makes it any sense going nuts for a D700? I could get the body at about 2500 euros, and see how it fares with the lens I already have. I used to take lots of pics years ago and I've never found a camera that I loved more than the Pentax Super-A I got in the 80's. This would be my first DSLR camera, and while I know a bit about taking pictures with a SLR, I have 0 experience with DSLR. For digital I've only had a couple of P&S.

Best wishes Ken. Hopefully he killed those bad girls this time.

This place is about friendship, knowledge, sane criticism and serious music enjoyment. If you don't fit any of those, then go elsewhere. If you are hesitant why you're not fitting, then think again. It's possible you're not that knowledgeable or just you can't practice a healthy criticism. Take your time to guess why.

Wow, this went fast. I guess they'll be available here in a few days/weeks

I like Mullova's playing a lot, so I'm biased. Not very familiar with these concerts either. I think it's a good performance, but can't say how it compares to others.

That was my point Jacob, it's kind of safer to have a dead Bin Laden, but it's hard to believe that thing of in the sea burial, which isn't part of any Muslim ritual.
