About all I use is A series lenses on mine.
I don't consider manual focus to be a work around, though others may.

I haven't used a K lens on it yet, though I haven't ruled it out. Not having
metering and having to use manual exposure is a work around, in that
metering must be done with an external meter.
There are a few work arounds, such as partially dismounting the lens and the
like, but that sort of thing is not for me.
