Originally posted by 3by2 It doesn't sound normal, the 40 end can be a little soft wide open but not blurred. Presumably you've adjusted the af fine tuning for the lens?
yes, i did AF finetune the lens, it performs sharp witihin the focal distance. This morning i used to take sunrise photos and focus to infinity and i found the photo is soft and out of focus.
May be the light was bad this morning.
Thanks anyway

Originally posted by AfterPentax Mark II That is not normal behaviour. I think it is a bad copy and I would return it. Do you have problems with another lens on your K-3 III?
I have not used my K-3 iii long enough to test other lenses.
I am in Australia and bought the lens from BHP. It is hard to return oversea. I may take to my local Pentax dealer CRK to deal with it.
Thanks.
I will do sunrise photography again tomorrow, will use LV for comparison
