NX300 with manual Tomioka 55mm f1.4 M42

Hi,

I'd like to give this lens a try, there's a relatively cheap one available in mint condition and they seem to be nice. I've never used non-samsung lenses on my NX, so pardon my ignorance.

I ordered the adapter as shown on the photo below. Is it just a matter or installing the lens on the adapter and then the body or something else needs to be done? I came across something about the pin that needs to be pressed, but not sure even what it means.

Also, will focus peaking work with a manual lens?

Any information would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bane
