Sorry the guide number is wrong, it's 120feet or 37meteres at iso100 at 50mm zoom meaning it's in the same league as the Metz 48 AF-1 but then for half the price.

I also have CS4 even the Extended version but I don't see it either.
Do they use another version for their tutorial?

I know that you want to find enhance and add it but to what cause, what function/action do you hope to find there?

If they use a different photoshop it can be that the functions/actions have been moved under another tab.

edit: just looked some things up on internet, I believe there is an enhance menu in photoshop elements, you will find some options back under Image>Adjustments in cs4

Just to get it right, both your long lenses have this problem right?

I think it's an AF problem but it could be a bit of both so the lens and the camera. It could be that the camera work well with another lens but since you've two lenses I think that the camera is more likely the source.

One thing though, do you use an filter on your lens, if so try it with out it. I believed I've heard that some lenses don't like filters, not with these lenses though but it's easy to try out and test right but I don't think that's it though.

No problem Geoff.

The KX is a very nice camera but you might miss the control you have over it compared to the K10D.
I shoot a lot in manual everything so all the extra buttons to change settings is very welcome, there for I would go for a K7 instead of the KX also I don't shoot high iso a lot and the K7 seems better at low iso.
But I use "I" a lot now because that's a personal view.

Samsung and Sony have their new sensor design ready and it looks very promising noise wise. they have placed the sensitive part closer to the surface so that they catch more light.

I think we would see those in the upcoming pentax probably but if that would be 2010 or 2011?

Indeed that looks like a focus problem.
Contact the shop and see what they can do for you, probably a recalibration by pentax might solve it I presume the camera is new so you might ask that they swap it for a new one.

It depends on the contrast and size of the subject and the lighting.
If it has quite some contrast and it's during day light then I expect it to be accurate enough to rely on, so over the 90%.
Although I know the limitations so I don't rely that it would get the focus that I want most of the time.

This is what I mean with that you can see the focus point on the LCD screen.
It's big square in between the four blueish parts, that says iso, awb, etc.
The red point indicates which AF point is selected.

I would check with your standard lens(es) as to infinity as a starter. After that do a front/back focus test and if possible adjust the camera to suit. I think this can be done on the K-x but could be wrong
No only the recent high-end have that so the K20D and the K7.
