It's a shame, but in this day & age, many many of the members here wouldn't know their Pentax from their Rokkor from their UC-Hexanon. It's not their fault. They just haven't been exposed to anything except Canon, Nikon, Sigma, Tamron & Tokina autofocus "Digital Ready" gear. That's ok. They are still good people.

Thank you. Without autofocus, very few of my photos would be in focus due to vision challenges.

Based on the 7 rolls of film I shot of my grandchildren week before last, autofocus doesn't cure my vision challenges.

That is not possible. It was not taken at F1.0...
