Your meanderings have caused my brain to actually start working.

Canon FD system, at one point, had some tiny plastic part used for manual 
diaphragm activation, did they not? Used for reversed lenses, as FD lenses
not 
mounted revert to F5.6 diaphragm opening. 

Why is it not possible to create such a part to mount temporarily in the
back 
of K mount lenses which are mounted on the *ist line? Obviously the Canon 
part did not suffer any particular space limitations, given that it was
intended 
for reversed lenses. 

Am I going mad?

Kind regards

Peter

Do we have to answer that question?
