Pentax can adjust the K10D focus. (You could do it yourself if you had the early firmware installed.) I had mine adjusted at the Colorado service center. I believe it was rather inexpensive.

Hi Stan,

I have done some preliminary tests and I am not very pleased with both
body and lens. Both are back focusing - I have tried my K100D body
with the lens and all my lenses on K10D body. The results are really
bad. Even on 50/1.4 K10D shows really bad backfocusing (I did my tests
on printed meter, angle was 45 degrees). The focus looks ok in the
viewfinder but the result photo shows it clearly. Backfocusing of the
lens is even worse even on K100D body that has no backfocus problem.

Could this happen during the shipping? Have you used the body or the
lens you sent me?

I will do more tests but I don't think it will be better :(

1. K10D. Excellent condition, seldom used. Really. I got this from a PDMLer in trade for some other equipment, he had used it very little. And I have
used it as the 2nd, backup body in my kit. Includes original box and
everything that came in the box. Going price on Ebay seems to be about $400, I'll take $350 (including shipping) for U.S. and Canada, $340 plus actual
cost of shipping beyond North America.

2. DA 16-45/4.0 Used, good condition, no reason to sell except that I have the 16-50/2.8 and don't really need two zooms in the same range and could use the funds to buy a K20D body. If interested, make me a fair offer. I haven't done the "market research" on this one to be able to set a price
yet.

3. A-100/2.8 Macro. Great lens which I just haven't used for a few years
(since I got the FA*-200 Macro). $450 plus shipping.
