If your talking about the Pentax 17-70, I've had problems with it not locking onto focus. However I came to the conclusion that the lens is susceptible when in low contrast situations. As you say cleaning or not cleaning contacts made no difference.
I have wondered if its all about low contrast situations, and usually that is the case - however when its playing up I have also pointed it at something with more obvious contrast and sometimes it has still played up!

Here's one:
link from 7dayshop. It is the full capacity one unlike the INOV8 which is only 1300mAh or so (and the one available from SRS). I have both and both work fine

From a composition point of view, I agree about the LHS crop and perhaps a tad off top to sit the speck of dust more in accordance with the rule of thirds. What do you think?

In all seriousness Ken - you have captured it nicely. Its not really something I'd thought about; how to get the texture etc
