That's what I was looking for. Thanks Paul. I haven' run into some of the autofocus problems that others have experienced with the Pentax dSLRs, so I don't know if it is a design flaw or a quality control problem that people are experiencing. But I don't really use many lenses with a huge focusing throw (like macro) where the lens searches a lot for a focus. My macro is on an Olympus E-1 (and it can be problematic on that camera).
