There are some ongoing threads on DPReview about the issue. The last I had read, no definite conclusions had been drawn. I had asked if anyone was seeing the same problems with a film *ist or MZ-S, wondering if it were a general AF problem, problem with SAFOX VIII or specific lenses. Guess I'll have to jump over there and take a look and see if more light has been shed on the subject.
