There is not such an adapter on the market, and if there was, it would
not permit 'auto' whatever.

However, I have adapted several lenses for such use, details here:

<http://www.cottysnaps.com/snaps/mods/eoskmount.html>

It is rather costly and the lenses can only be used in stop-down metering
mode with either manual or aperture priority, but it is possible to do.
The Pentax lens is modified by removing the aperture coupling lever and
changing the mount. This means that it cannot easily by used on a Pentax
camera again.

HTH

BTW, you're forgiven.




Cheers,
  Cotty
