Does anyone know what settings to use to get the Power Zoom functions to work using a K10D and the FA power zoom lenses?  I’m using the SMC FA 28 - 105 and 100 - 300mm lenses. I read an article that stated the lenses will operate two of the modes available. These 4 options / operations are supposed to be available when used with the K10D
1. Power Zoom
2. Lens Retraction
3. Zoom Clip Mode
4. Image Size Tracking Mode
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks - B

The only PZ functions that will work on the K10d (and K20, K7, & K5) are the power zoom and lens retract functions. I know, I have several PZ lenses. I believe the SDM contacts in the K10 and later cameras are the same as the PZ contacts. I have a PZ-1p film camera and have played with the full PZ modes of the PZ lenses it's sort of interesting but that's about it.
