If there is one complaint that I have regarding my K-5, it is its erratic autofocusing, and I'm not referring to focusing speed. I'm referring to the fact that its focusing is not always precise. Is the K-5II significantly more accurate and consistent in its AF?
Thanks,

Hi Rob,
A few questions-
Does the K-5 have this fault in low light only or is it all the time? Also is it happening with a variety of lenses or one in particular?
The K-5ii /s does focus better in low light then the K-5 and I noticed a substantial focusing improvement with my K-5iis across all my lenses.(I also found the lack of AA filter on the K-5iis sensor made me realise how good some of my lenses are
May I suggest that you do a test with a large focusing target using the central focusing point. Do the tests in good light, at various focus distances, starting from the the ends of the focal range of the lens each time.
Repeat the tests with other lenses and this should give you an idea whether it is the camera or the lens that is at fault.
Hope this helps
Chris
