As far a ducking questions go, a bunch of mine went unanswered too. How about this one? If pentax removed the aperture cam to sell new Lenses, then why did they add GB after the fact?
They cant seem to make up their mind. If they really want to sell New lenses, then they should drop GB too. If they really want To support K/M, then they should put the stupid $5 part back in There and charge for it. They are really being plain out stupid On the whole issue with the "kludge" "solution".

I also asked you two similar questions, neither of which you answered So, for the last time, in even simpler terms, over the years, how many new K and M lenses have you purchased from a retailer? Don't duck the issue. BTW, it seems that the resale value of the older lenses is holding up quite well. The fact that they can be used on the DSLR bodies seems to have strengthened their value.
