The limit was more camera dependent, if the open aperture is close to or below the ev threshold for the AF sensor, auto focus will be problematic. In bright light I've never had the AF 1.7x fail achieve focus with any lens and camera body I've tried it with. It really starts to hunt with the

Cute capture Paul. Have you run into an aperature that causes the AF to not focus with the DA convertor? I believe that the old 1.7 AF convertor had a limit for AF to operate. Kenneth Waller http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/kennethwaller - Original Message - From: "Paul Stenquist"

I'm regularly drawn back to this image to visually reexamine it. I get that it has no real visual impact, but I find so much to see. Inadvertently, the composition is so comfortable I can't "put it down" for long. I don't consider it dynamic or artistic (whatever that may be) and some could ea
