ATTACHING AND REMOVING LENSES 4-• 0 I Read this section even if the lens is already mounted on the camera. • Remove the body-mount cap and the rear lens cap. The Body-Mount Cap F and the Lens-Mount Cap K are available as options. 1. Align the red dot on the camera with the red dot on the lens (see 0 and 0 ), place the lens onto the camera's lens mount, and turn it clockwise until the lens locks with a click. When mounting the lens by touch under dim light, method ® is recommended. 2. To remove the lens cap, press in the tabs on both sides. 3. To remove the lens, turn it counterclockwise while pressing the lens release lever toward the camera body. • Attach the front and rear lens caps on the detached lens to protect it from dust and scratches. The lens should be set down with the front lens side down, as illustrated. * If a Pentax-A or -M lens is mounted directly onto the camera, it can be used only in the manual-focus mode (page 34). It can also be used as an auto-focus lens in combination with the AF Adapter 1.7X (optional). * Old Screw-mount Takumar lenses can be used with the Mount Adapter K (optional). However, focusing must be made using the viewfinder's matte area. Do not damage or stain the lens information contacts or the AF coupler on the mount surfaces of the camera and the lens. If this occurs, wipe them gently with a clean dry cloth. • 6
