What a nitwit you are, Joe. You will always take the most negative interpretation. Perhaps he thought that a sensible audience would assume SSM would be faster as there would be no point in all that complexity just to reduce noise.
John ----- Mr. Tatamiya was asked a direct question, as follows: "Does this mean faster AF speed?" Rather than claim that it will, he responded "I do not believe Pentax¹s AF has been slow even on the current lenses. Mechanical noise during AF might give impression of slow AF, but it is on par with competitions using the benchmark test." Let's see: I have been criticized here for posting reports that were not certified by God as 100% accurate. Now I am criticized for not speculating about what Mr. Tatamiya might have intended but left unsaid. I may be a nitwit, John, but I have to say that I am not impressed with your facility in logic.
