I suspect that the commercial failure of the ME-F with its autofocus
lens is what set Pentax back in the autofocus race.  After the ME-F
they went back to manual focus systems in the P series and were not
ready to meet the challenge of the Minolta 7000.
Can't understand why, as a focus assist system it works really well. 
With low ligh it's a
bit worse than the DS but not too much. Was it too expensive?
When I receive the autofocus lens I'll report on how it works.
