I have no ideal

You can use non-Dx film, as long as it is ISO100. The camera automatically reverts to ISO100 if there is no bar code to read from the canister.

EDIT: Just found this... I didn't know if they still made these, so I didn't want to post right away. Here is a site that sells foil labels for film canisters so that DX cameras can read the film's ISO if you want to shoot higher than 100.

I'm not going to post a link here due to potential copyright issues, but if you put "pentax p5 manual" into google, I'm sure you'll find some useful documents.
 
If you shoot in manual you should be able to shoot at any iso you want if you have a light meter or just convert what the meter says at iso100 to what iso you want to shoot at by baltering shutter speed and aperture
