Strong Rumour. Unless Pentax adds a secondary drive mechanism, the new SSM lenses will not AF on bodies earlier than the K10D. Of course, the new 300 is a D-FA*, not a DA*, so it may not be SSM. But I can't see why it wouldn't be. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
