SDM is a mixed bag. It's not necessarily faster than good screwdriver AF (try a Sony A700 or Minolta Maxxum 7 or 9 sometime if you want to see what screwdriver AF can do with a powerful AF motor). It is quieter. And with Pentax's traditionally underpowered AF motors, it's faster on the DA* zooms than their FA* equivalents. -- M.
