I don't think anyone should be selling cameras that can't focus. The
first-hand user report in the thread was "concerning" thats all. Right
now, the Nikon and the Pentax seem to be the front-runners of the 10
megs out there, barring any problems with either.

Olympus SLR forum on dpreview. Because of Olympus's lack of progress
in bringing out a new pro level camera, a few users have jumped ship to
other brands to get higher resolution, lower noise, etc.

Is Pentax selling cameras that can't focus?

It's fairly common that someone thinks their lens will be able to focus
on something, and it can't. It could be that the object is too close to
the camera or that there's simply not enough contrast in the scene. In
either of those cases, the lens will hunt as that poster describes.

I chalk it up to thinking the camera will do something it can't.

Yes, a new product line starts April 1st 2007.

Get outta here.

Rich is a user error? Damn, they should have clearer
instructions on contraceptive products.
