If the Pentax is anything like the Minolta (. . . it has a lens, a
shutter, a body . . .), there probably are small dots or markings
of some kind between 800 and 1600 on the ASA setting dial.  This is
what they indicate:

		. 800 ASA
		  . 1000 ASA
		  . 1250 ASA
		. 1600 ASA

That is, one mark past the 800 setting should set your meter to
handle ASA 1000 film.  Have fun.
