Originally posted by Raffwal I wonder if this really is the same well documented front focusing problem?

Have you tried fine tuning the AF outside to see if that brings you the tungsten FF problem?
i though about this but we talking here of same problem on multiple cameras showing same issue, even k20d demonstrates same problem just not as much.
and yes adjustment to +6/+7 does great job but then indoors i'm starting to see problems, not as much but there is still a problem and with modern dslr like k5 that is just NOT GOOD ENOUGH and when i have party that is half/half inside and outside like i had 2 weeks ago it is nightmare because unless you rememeber to switch it around every time you move around the place you looking at lots of shots that are good for nothing, not to mention forget about doing quick snaps when something special happens, what do i do than? scream out "please pause the action while i adjust my camera!!!" ? once again NOT GOOD ENOUGH
being loyal to pentax is starting to get on my nerves now
lets see if i remember well
k10d tilted viewfinder
k20d cracking lines followed by chip at base of the camera
k7 green lines joys
k5 stains, AF issues (this one you can add to other models too) (also sticky shutter button, fixed and now doing it again)
but i'm most mad at k5 because it is such fine device, focus when adjusted and under not changing conditions is fast and spot on, iso performance, dr rang, all is just outstanding but if i can't trust it it really turns in to nothing more but frustration orginally i was sure k5 will be model i might keep for couple of years before i jump to next model but now i can't wait for the next model having fingers crossed that it will finally give us good AF system.
