Heaven forbid if our dear kit lens is ever labeled as the "shit lens."

Well that's not really marketing any more, that's more like telling the truth.

Where did you get that idea from? Have you tried kit lenses from the other brands? Perhaps you should, it might change your ideas about the Pentax kit lens. The kit lens is something that Pentax is getting right.

I sometime use AF but I'm finding the outcome is a bit soft. I'm not sure if it's a BF/FF issue. It's been a real stinker to fix.

Got a few chuckles out of that one. Thanks for the laugh, needed it.
