Originally posted by SouthShoreRob I'm one of the guys who currently has his K10D in the "shop" for back focus issues. I guess my question, at this point, is how in the world is it possible that so many of us are experiencing this difficulty? Are we talking about wear and tear, quality control problem, or maybe even a design flaw?
Not sure. I noticed my wider shots and macros were not quite right, from the start. I just put it off to me and or well not sure what else.
Thinking that, if Pentax made lens focus adjustment available to the user on the K20D, it might be design problems.
The Nikon D1 had BF issues in lower light, and Nikon said there was not a problem, but, if you sent it in they fixed it.
F stops from F 4 and up are not my problem areas. F4 to F1.8 are. No point in doing focus bracketing, a $1000 camera should work.:-)
I shoot a lot of indoor horse shows at ISO 1000-1250 at F3.2 or 2.8 with a D2H or D1H,and the focus is great. I wanted to start doing this with the K10D and a fast zoom. I'm not so sure now.
Or, i'm just part of the paranoid groups now.
