Yeah but that is what you actually need. The AF sensor array has to fall into the area observed by the CCD array in this case which makes a 35mm AF sensor array too wide to properly cover the small CCD sensor. If they are using the one from the EOS ix APS camera it is as good as any other AF system. Kent Gittings

A 3.3mp or better K-mount digital for $1000 - 1500 sounds like a winner to me, too, even with a "small" sensor. At least Pentax is not likely to put a dinky little APS autofocus system (a la the D30) into their digital. -- John Mustarde - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
