Using AFS & AFA, been using the camera for a number of months, so most light conditions & subject matter. It eventually focuses, just takes patience. I have been getting good photos ( although missed many "street shots" as the subject has long gone by the time it focuses)
I have tried the various AF active area settings (11,5,sel & spot), with no discernible difference. I will be trying to get another lens (2nd hand) to see if it is a lens malfunction. (have taken the lens off, checked the pins on camera & lens, everything looks straight & clean).
So, just tried taking a textured wall, standing about 2 meters away, & still "hunts". In order to get it to focus, the shutter button has to be pressed down 1/2 way, a sound occurs, then nothing, button released, & repeated, for as many times as it takes until the beep & small red box. Thanks for the suggestions & help- really appreciated!

I am using the kit lens SMC DA L 1:4-5.6 18-50mm DC WR RE
when pressing the shutter button 1/2 way on AF mode, just get a "doo-doo-doo-doo" sound & the lens seems to move backwards & forwards.

Found this forum when I started playing a round a bit more with my K S2, specially wondering about the autofocus issue I am having ( 1st DSLR, so thought it was "normal" for the auto focus to be continually hunting, until my husband got annoyed with how long it took me to take photos, started using it, & informed me, that this indeed was not normal! :)
Hoping to learn more about this camera, & figure out if a lens change will do the trick ( & get more hooked on photography along the way)
