Hi John...Welcome to PR and the Pentax Forum. I'm sorry I don't have an answer for you. However, If we don't get something from someone on this forum shortly, I'll move this thread over to the help forum and maybe we can get you an answer over there. I will also look around and see if I can find an answer for you.

In the meantime, please post a couple of examples. Sometimes what seems to be focus issues may be motion blur issues. Are you using a tripod when you shoot long distance? What settings are you using?

Again, welcome and I look forward to seeing some of your photography.
