Focus hunt at DVinfo.net

Please to all of you who will have a chance to test it, check for the focus hunting problem on automatic focus

This is going to decide if I will buy this camera

Thanks

To the best of my knowledge this is not a problem with a camera
but with a lens. So the question should be: can you check the
20x lens for focus hunting I think.

From your remark I assume you do want an autofocus lens so
a manual lens would not be an option? Otherwise you could
order just the body (saves you $1,000) and perhaps get a
used 14x manual lens?

For more lens options see this page.
