The K-5 II uses a new AF system, the SAFOX X - with redesigned optics, works from EV -3 and the center point has additional accuracy with f/2.8 (or faster) lenses. The K-30's SAFOX IXi+ is the K-5's SAFOX IX+ with optics redesigned to counter chromatic aberrations (probably to solve the tungsten light issues). -- Best regards, Alex Sarbu -- 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.
