Since I dunno OTTOMH does it have screw at all?
SWAG - I'm guessing that it does not, based DP Review of the only Pentax
SDM lens they reviewed (so far), the DA* 55mm F1.4 SDM
DPReview says:
"However the lens lacks Pentax's traditional screw-drive focus coupling,
and the AF motor is powered by 2 contacts inside the lens mount, which
are absent from bodies older than the K10D of late 2006. Essentially
this means that the lens won't autofocus on the *ist series DSLRs, or
the K100D and K110D."
Wondering with regard to the assumption expressed by parts of forum
world that it could be a SDM and screw convergence point issue.
