I have just returned from photgraphing my sons Paintball game and used the DA*50-135 on my K20 exclusively and didn't have any issues with it. I have owned mine for 8 months and never had a problem.

I was doing some publicity shoots on Thursday and put this lens on the K20D.
Problems I was having was that the lens would not focus at all, whether in AF or MF.
After taking the lens off and on the camera many times, I would focus, but the images were black even with my 540fgz providing light.
I changed lenses (fortunately having another lens with me, namely my Sigma 24-70mm F2.
I did the shoot with the sigma, and after the shoot, I put the DA* back on. This time it worked fine.
This is the first time this has happened, so a little worried that it could happen again.
This is my fave lens, and would not want to have a problem with it constantly
