Has anyone had a problem with autofocus not working. I tried 2 lenses and both won't focus unless in Auto (green button) or User. Is there a setting I'm missing?
Any help appreciated!

IF you press info(info menu) in which mode is the AF?

I'm an idiot😊 The K5 is my backup camera now and I have it set for back button focus. Forgot completely... Sorry for wasting your time😊

You're not an idiot, you are just suffering from the Hereafter syndrome - you know, when you get to the kitchen and say to yourself, "Now what the heck did I come here after?"
