Doesn't make sense. The sensor in question is the contrast comparator  
AF sensor, which hasn't changed from the K10D far as I can tell.

Ultra-ultra short focal lengths like this are always the most  
difficult for AF systems (and the human eye!) to manage critical  
focus with. But the K20D should work the same as the K10D in this  
regard ... the resolution of the capture sensor is irrelevant.
