(I'm not quite sure whose comment that was) I never found anything wrong with Pentax AF on the much-maligned PZ-1 and I thought the ZX-5n wasn't too bad either, though not good in really low light. However, it seems to me that autofocus on the *ist D is worse than either of those. I use manual focus most of the time with the *ist D because I've lost a lot of shots while the camera hunted, and lost some more that turned out, upon inspection, to be out of focus. And as I've said before, the autoexposure with the *ist D doesn't work as well as ANY other Pentax camera with AE that I've used: that would be two ME Supers, P30t, Super Program, Program Plus, LX, PZ-1, ZX-5n, WR-90 and Optio 550. That said, I am learning to get better exposures out of the *istD, and as someone else has said, its viewfinder works fine for manual focus. ERNR
