With the FA* lenses you have to click the focus ring into a different position to decouple the AF mechanism. With the DA lenses it's just a clutch.

The Pentax DA and D-FA lenses all have full-time manual focusing via a clutch system. I'm given to understand that a couple of FA* lenses
might have it too.........

FA* 24mm f/2 and FA* 85mm f/1.4
