How does one check infinity focus at 16mm? It would seem that the DOF is so extensive at that focal length, even at f2.8, that it would be nearly impossible to determine accurate focus. I don't think I've ever attempted infinity focus at 16mm on my lens. I'll have to try it and see what happens.

My K20D came back yesterday. It appears that to correct the sensor problem Pentax just replaced all or most of the electronics. When I turned it on, it started up with the initial menu, asking for language, location, time. Then I had to go into the menus and set all my preferences again. Now I get to start testing 18 or 19 lenses for autofocus adjustment.

The new DA* 16-50 F2.8 has a problem like the last one had. It won't autofocus to infinity at 16 mm. So even in newer copies of this lens there are problems. I will try to correct this with the autofocus adjustment, but if that doesn't work it will have to go back to Pentax--again. I'm getting tired of this.
