A PK Lens to EOS Body Adaptor that Supports Aperture and Focal Inputs Plus Focus Correction!

Amazing! What an excellent camera hacking job by that Chinese hacker/maker! Now you can enjoy all these functions with Pentax K-mount lenses on Canon EOS bodies. The aperture and focal will be recorded in EXIF and metering will be more accurate! The Pentax lenses can now be even focus adjusted on EOS bodies, which "genuine" Pentax users could not even do this and enjoy this "pro" feature on entry level or older K-mount Pentax DSLR bodies! :-o

Really wonderful! Great Job, I have to say! :-D

NO, it doesn't. Just like the other adapter with confirm chip. It allows you to set the exif. That's all.

No auto-aperture, the most important thing with Pentax lens. :))

I mentioned in the beginning that it is input, not set, didn't I? :-)

It's hard to tell with your "English" :p
This "problem" can be easily solved. Just Google translate my page(s) into any language you prefer! ;-D
You don't understand my comment. We can adjust everything with the new AF confirm chip with any lens (Nikon, Olympus, Contax....). Nothing new. I like the AF confirm chip preset (e.g Focal length input 50mm and Av = 2.0) rather than each time before attaching new lens, you loss time to readjust everything.

Do you believe that with the aperture and focal length adjusted, the metering will be more accurate? :)) I found nothing "pro" feature with your entry level body. Take the Kx is more "pro" to profit all "pro" feature of Pentax lens.

Read two of my related articles provided above and you'll know why an input aperture will help metering accuracy.

Erm... manually focusing a lens and setting the aperture via ring = pro features?

Maybe in the 70's ;).
