Originally posted by Kunzite I'm not saying it's bad; just that perhaps the difference from well-made KAF4 lenses isn't that big. In reliability, because in other aspects...
Yes, it would be reasonable to expect that in-lens aperture control would be as reliable as in-body aperture control* and that in-lens focus motor general reliability would continue according to historic patterns**.
I'm not saying its bad, but probably no worse than similar miniaturized assemblies in small appliances, personal care, office automation, and automotive. Too bad we have such a short time line to assess the K
AF4 aperture control tech.

* Aperture control failure anyone?
** Has any established maker avoided a failure-prone in-lens AF motor series?
