Francis, I too have noticed the same thing - seems to focus just fine at 105 and then zoom out. Try it the other way around and it's "time to refocus". I thought this was just me but obviously there are at least 2 of us who have this little concern. It's not a big deal really but I guess this is due to the fact that it's a 2 touch zoom rather than a "standard" zoom.
Any other inputs would be helpful Dave Original Message: ----------------- From: Frank Knapik [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2002 12:01:49 -0400 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Pentax A-35-105/3.5 Zoom Focusing Question Hello. I find that this zoom focuses better when I zoom the lens out to 105, focus, then zoom wide. It always stays in focus. I find that if I focus lets say at 50mm then zoom out to 100mm, I have to refocus. Has anyone else experienced this? I do find this lens to be a very sharp zoom. I took it to NYC on my LX, mostly using a tripod, and was very impressed with the results. Thank you.
