Joe, it also happened to me once. Just unmounted and re-mounted it once or
twice and then everything turned back to work fine. Try switching off the
camera, clean the mount and such, as in my case it was that sort of things
that striked, not a mechanical failure.

Subject: Pentax Quality Control Strikes Again
I have had my DA* 50-135 F2.8 about 15 months. In that time I doubt if I
have taken more than 150 images with it.
I used it yesterday and it worked fine. In fact I got a particularly fine
image with it.
Then it went into my camera bag overnight. Today I pulled it out and put
it on the K20D. It won't focus--either by AF or manually. The focus ring
turns but the the scale doesn't. Same thing when it is off the camera. It
somehow broke itself overnight sitting in my bag.
This couldn't come at a worse time. I am in Rome for a few days, and have
been finding this lens useful for several shots.
So I will have to pay Pentax to repair it. Then what can I expect? Another
150 shots before it has to be repaired again?
Pentax, I am not amused.
Joe
