I rented a DA*300/4 from <www.cameralensrentals.com> for the trip,
with an eye toward buying it next summer. Good service from the
company, and I found it to be an outstanding lens. Sharp and
contrasty from f/4, with no noticeable CA or purple fringing.
My K10D have me some AF trouble, mostly trying to shoot birds in
flight. If the bird ever slipped off the AF sensor, and the camera
only "saw" clear blue sky, it would send the lens to the close-focus
limit, and stay there (with the AF hexagon blinking). Releasing and
re-pressing the shutter wouldn't budge it, nor would switching between
AF.C and AF.S, nor would turning the camera off and back on. I had to
switch to MF, move the lens focus out, and then switch back to AF. I
was able to reproduce this problem on the DA*300, my Tamron 70-300,
and my DA 18-55. Now that I'm back home, and thinking of sending the
camera in for service, I can't reproduce it any more. :-/
