That's funny, as I handled three various DA 16-45 and there was very little play in extended barrel and there was no play at all in the focusing ring which acted very nicely - perhaps not as good as in MF lenses, but much better than in FA zooms or for instance Nikon AF-S 24-85/3.5-4.5. Anyway its build quality is much better than of non- star FA zooms. Maybe your test sample was broken??? :-)
