If it is a manual focus lens, you need to turn off Autofocus on the
body of your K10D. On my K100D, there is a switch on the side of the
lens mount that says [-MF or -AF]. "-MF" is manual focus mode &
"-AF" is autofocus mode. Since your lens doesn't have autofocus
capability, turn it to the "-MF" mode.
Also . . . When I press "Menu" and go to "Custom Setting", I change two settings . . .
1)
I change "Using aperture ring" to "Permitted". This allows you to use
manual lenses (M lenses) that do not have an auto(exposure) setting,
and also lets you use Auto lenses (A, KA, KA2, FA, etc.) in either the
Auto or manual aperture setting modes.
2) I change "Fl with S
lens used" so that even with a manual focus lens, although I don't have
autofocus capability, my K100D beeps and shows a little red square in
the viewfinder when I have successfully focused manually!
The K10D should have the same options.
This should get you up and running!
I have had a load of fun with my old lens on my new digital Pentax!
First make sure the MF/AF switch is set to AF(this raises the

Here is the thread in dpreview that I learn about the issue and from
what I understands, if the AF quick shift is pushed to engage the AF
lock, the push of pin from your K mount may yield a kick/push on the
stuck lens and give you a bit of wiggling room to have a better chance
to free up your lens. Whatever you do, try to do it as patiently as you
can, there is no need to wiggle hard.
have u got cleared?
