Stepped out early one morning in mid-Oct, wasn't expecting to come across fog. Everything just came together for this photo.

Well, that was the part that didn't make sense ... i mean, the motor is doing *something* as you can see from the video, and I just assumed that it must be something other than the motor that was doing something wrong.

Over two weeks, and still the same issue. It will not auto-focus with any Screw-Drive lens that I own, but has no problems focusing with my SDM or HSM lenses. At this point, the only other option I can think of is to send it back to Pentax for an estimate, but I honestly am not sure it's worth the effort.

When I'm in Live View, on Face Detect AF or Contrast AF I can barely hear three tiny clicks but the lens does not focus whatsoever. When it's set to Phase Difference AF, it does the same thing as when I view through the viewfinder. I also threw on my Tamron 28-75 (which did not go with me and is my go-to lens) and it has the exact same focus issue on the K5II :(
I'll throw it into a container with some rice and leave it for a few days to see what happens. I'm assuming that I should just throw a body cap on and call it a day?

That's the frustrating thing ... this happened on the 14th, and it's still exhibiting this problem but only with certain lenses. In the end it's not the end of the world as I can go manual focus and everything works as expected, but I would have thought that this would be an all-or-nothing issue in that AF would work with all lenses or none at all.

Good afternoon all,
So, I happened to have my Tamron 10-24 on my K5II for a trip up to Alaska, and of course it decides to start raining while I was in a canoe out to the Mendenhall Glacier. I did my best to keep the camera as dry as possible, but it started acting up after 45 minutes of light rain ... at first, it wouldn't turn on for more than 1/2 second but after drying out in the room overnight it was mostly working as expected by the morning.
However, I am having some odd issues with autofocus now, and only with specific lenses. For example, my Tamron 10-24 and Sigma 30 f1.4 both do this quick 7-times shallow back & forth but never lock focus, but my Sigma 50-150 and Pentax 300 both work perfectly. I've tried all 4 lenses on my K01 and they focus as expected, so I can't see the lenses being the issue
Example of what I'm seeing: Youtu.be |

Any suggestions? Or am I doomed to finally have a reason to upgrade to a K1?
