these are pentax screw lenses, must have an arpeture that will step down without pressing the pin. I have a ton of stuff I can trade for.

Most screw mount lenses have an auto/manual switch near the back so they can be compatible with pre-auto diaphragm cameras like the FX. So, basically, any M42 screw mount lens will work, pin or not.
