A zoom lens having a minimum focal length of around 50mm and a maximum focal length of much greater than 50mm was always termed 'telephoto zoom'. A zoom lens having a maximum focal length of around 50mm and a minimum focal length of much less than 50mm was always termed 'wide angle zoom'.
Otherwise, a fixed focal length lens of greater than 50mm was termed 'telephoto' and a fixed focal length lens of less than 50mm was always termed 'wide angle'.
But that was in the days of film, terminology may well have changed in recent years.

I'm not sat with my camera at the mo, but isn't there a 'enable SDM' setting on the K10 at least that could be switched off, thus allowing the screw drive to run? :

The difference however is so minimal that the versatility of the DA* 16-50mm wins the day for me, even though I prefer the images from the 31mm Ltd.
Sell the 31m Ltd is my recommendation, which has pi$$ed me off because I have those two lenses also, and the 16-50 is my "on the camera at all times" lens. In fact, I bought a 2nd K20D for the DA* 60-250mm.
Thank you very much for a very interesting topic Nathan.
