Thanks Paul and Antti. I thought as much, but thought i'd ask, you know me.:-)
As far as Pentax not getting back to me, it seems Maria is no longer there, and thus did not return my calls or messages. Her voice mail is still there though, but no a Lynn sits in that seat. Terrible sympathetic to my problem and multi courier packages, but not much help, Pentax: just send it in and we'll look at it. Me: I think its more or a mirror box problem, not an AF problem back focusing, should i send in the DA 50 F2.8.Its been in twice so far. Pentax: If you want, we have a lot of lenses here you know. Me: I'm sure you do. Dave On Wed, May 14, 2008 at 10:00 AM, Paul Stenquist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The DA* lenses have USM autofocus.
