"Quiet" is pretty subjective. I don't find Pentax's AF quiet at all, even in the MZ-S. The noise is hardly noticeable when the lens locks focus quickly, but when the camera has to hunt to achieve focus it's quite loud. This is one area where Canon excels and Nikon isn't bad. chris - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
