Garbage, depending upon the application some are AF formulations are better, some are the same and some are worse. You'll find that most users here own a mix of lens types for all sorts of reasons and most have been Pentax SLR users for many years too hence their apparent attachment to some great old manual glass. I've had some of my lenses almost 20 years and I now have quite a few new AF lenses but I still tend to shoot them as manual focus because it suites my subjects and working preferences. I have sold most of my non-performing glass and whether they were AF compatible or not didn't come into the equation. > Anything that brings us to Lauren and Hepburn is a good thing. So how is that, this is a Pentax photographic list surely there are better places to discuss Lauren and Hepburn?
