AF-A is intelligent switching between AF-S and AF-C. Nikon and Sony/Minolta have had it for a while (It's a Minolta innovation) and Canon calls it AI Servo. > > As for the DA-L lenses those have plastic mount, no QuickShift and no > distance markings on the focussing ring.

Overall I'm relatively impressed with the K-m. It's what the K200D should have been. The still-crippled buffer is much more forgivable in a low end body than one priced the way the K200D was. hopefully Pentax will bring out a new K200D replacement for PMA with better specs. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
