Shooting with m42 lenses is best on a Pentax, because of Hyper Manual.
Also, you should try to use an old preset lens on your Pentax (like
the inexpensive Tele-Takumar 200mm f5.6).
Presets work great and aren't hard to get used to at all on a DSLR.

I skimmed those links. From what I gathered, the green button on my
K-x essentially invokes hyper-program/hyper-manual?
I'll have to read the articles a little closer to get the full value
of what they are saying.
I've never seen/used a preset lens. Are they easier than using a
super tak with the auto/manual switch?

Essentially the same thing. The only difference is how you get the lens
stopped down.
