...sad news, but looks like you're not alone, there are lots of reports
about problems in the hi-end Pentax stuff. I remember this happening
with the 16~50 2.8 - centering problems during some photozone test.
Any new product is likely to have issues, and any hi-end quality control
is supposed to keep those first batch issues under the carpet. I do
remember Paal fuming about his 28~80 2.8 - or was it the 80~200??
Boris, I'd cancel the K-7 order for the moment, to be re-issued in a
better moment. Those small details are likely to be solved, the big ones
should be acknowledged as such - so in a few months we should know for
sure if the K-7 is being plagued by small details or has serious problems.
Good luck - keep us posted pls.

Hi guys.
After some deliberation I decided to shell $250 for brand new FA
50/1.4 for my daughter. It arrived some days ago, and it says made in
Vietnam. Now, I don't have anything against it except that this lens
is soft at f/8 outdoors focused manually by the split screen. It is
going back to B&H but honestly, I am very disheartened by this. This
is something that should be just flawless, but it is anything but(t).
*sigh*
