"Question: How is the K-1 autofocus, as compared to say, a K-5?"
Thanks to Hoya, the K-5 had quite poor autofocus, especially in low light.
On
the other hand, the K-5II and IIs (I have both) have excellent AF.
I have used my K-1 only a little so far, but my impression is that it
hunts
more than my K-5II and IIs cameras, and has more trouble finding focus in
low
light. That is not to say that the K-1 AF is bad, just that it seems a
step
backward from the excellent AF of the K-5II series cameras. I never used a
K-3.
If you are using a K-5, you will be pleased with the K-1 AF.
On all my cameras, I use only central point autofocus.
Joe, my brief experience (2 weeks) with the K-1 and DFA 28-105 suggests that
its autofocus is better than my previous bodies, but I use the nine point AF
array. Have you tried it?
Regards, Jim
