Hi,

I've been a bit out from the pdml traffic lately. I guess this has been
discussed before (and there is a lot of discussion in the web about
front or back focus problems), but here goes (again?)...

It seems that my K10D does not focus correctly at infinity but instead
focuses a lot closer when shooting landscapes for example (front
focus?). This seems to happen more at the wide end (16mm) of the lens.
Shooting portraits or other subjects in the few meters range the focus
seems to be right on. 

I've been reading some discussion which suggested the problem is with
the SMD and maybe downgrading the firmware to V1.20 would solve the
problem (by using the focus motor in the K10D body). I own one other AF
lens (FA 100/2.8 Macro) which I have not yet tried. Then I have the AF
1.7X converter and a lot of manual focus lenses :-).

Ideas? Maybe I need to send the body to warranty service.
