What about aperture control? Can this camera selectively focus on a subject and put everything else our of focus by using a wide aperture for exposure?

you can set it to focus automatically, focus on select items and focus on forground only. You need to go through the menus to see and select. I am still learning all the things it can do

yes it can I'm still trying to master it. I'm still learning the camera but so far I have made a few good textures off of it.

You can set it based on the type of picture.. I have mine on burst and it takes it instantly. There are also advanced exposure settings and color preferences.

Yes, If i remember correctly. I set the different shutter speed and aperture.

Hi Beth, yes, you can change the aperture settings as well as the shutter speed, ISO level and exposure compensation in Manual mode. Thanks_Mitch

This lens is manual. the aperture is controlled by the ring that is in the lens and not the camera.

mmmm it doesn't have a preset for shooting no, but put it in aperture priority and you're good to go. with this camera, you don't want presets. hard to explain unless you;re holding it and using it. i'm shooting pro with this baby with the 70-200 2.8 and it's a dream. i do wish it had more focus points and i don't like the card slot at the bottom of the camera. not deal breakers, but it is a little annoying at times. at the end of the day, the photo is what matters and this camera is truly helps me take stunning pics - every time. i've had this camera since december.

I found it. The menu has a setting for a lens that has an aperture ring. So all I did was change the setting to "permitted" and it worked. So thanks to K. Johnson for the response and I will now put this forum to rest. What a great little camera, the Pentax Kx! And I just found out that it takes multiple exposure pictures; how much fun is that?

Yes you can the camera will set the aperture that you dial in. I use aperture priority on d300 and d7100 Nikon all the time.

Yes, you have full camera function. Exposure and focus function is normal. When mounting on the camera it is possible to turn past the proper alignment of electrical contacts and if so the aperature will not work, just dont turn past the correct alignment.

On my camera, I have to set the focal length and enable the exposure ring function when using this lens. Once complete, everything is automated but the focus.

yes you can- take auto focus off in settings and you can manually adjust to a point- the company I work for used it to make ID badge pictures though it is limited if you're trying to use it as a portable pocket digital camera.

you only focus manually and set the aperture. exposure time is calculated or set by the camera, depending on your shooting mode (Av / Tv etc). I have a Canon.

hello! well, honestly I could not find it in the manual. It's a toy camera, and you can control the aperture yourself by simply holding a little longer the shutter. the focus range is 50 cm to infinity. I didn't develop the film yet so I'm afraid I can not help you by answering the questions precisely. But I hope it helped you a little :)

No. This lens is a fixed focal length and you can only adjust the aperture and focus.

You can't set anything on the extension, it's only a tube with pieces you can take off depending on the macro you're looking for. Of course you can set the aperture to what ever you want on your camera. But this tube is great, and can't beat the price.

My Sony A77 controls aperture with one of the control wheels on the body itself. Made for a digital world :-)

Yes it can be focused but don't know to what degree. I never tried to focus on anything that close. Great little camera tho
