Notes
- Lenses with the KAF4 mount use electromagnetic diaphragms, omitting the mechanical aperture lever found on most Pentax lenses. Pentax DSLRs released before 2013, as well as the K-500, have not been updated to support KAF4 lenses and will always shoot with the aperture wide-open because they cannot control the diaphragm.
