Oddly enough, I don't exactly care for AF all together. If Pentax produced a camera (better FF) with a viewfinder similar to that of ME-Super, no AF, no nothing, just sensor, box, shutter and lens mount (and a big, bright, good split screen viewfinder) - I'll be all over it in a blink of an eye...

I am with Cotty here. Even modest?! 5 fps of my K-7 frighten me every time I set it to this mode and press the button. Also I am thinking that there is "good" and "bad" technology. E.g. "good" is 100% viewfinder whereas "bad" is 51 points auto focus with extra ability of manual override to any of
