It depends on what you mean by "do not support" and "will not work".
They will work 100% functionally WITHOUT the light-meter. When the meter is operated a K/M lens will be restricted to its widest aperture. One of yesterdays posts (forgotten from whom, sorry) mentioned a custom function that might enable meter reading when DOF is operated, so that would be the workaround if correct. So it depends upon whether you think the most important part of taking photographs is making a TTL light-meter reading, or making an actual exposure on film. regards, Anthony Farr ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jens Bladt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Hi all > Do we know for a fact, that the two *ist cameras do not support the use of K > and M-lenses - that they will not work with these cameras?
