My Pentax PZ-70 auto-focus turned lazy recently for no reason. It's no longer doing auto-focusing anymore. Pressing the shutter button halfway does nothing. Sometimes if I touch the focusing ring on the lens while half-push the shutter button, it may be able to auto-focus correctly for that particular shot. The next shot will be lazy focus again.

Any idea?

More than the focus is lazy here.

From the forum's opening page:

PLEASE DO NOT POST...questions unrelated to repair of cameras from the above mentioned camera eras. Also, to make it very clear, DO NOT POST questions about modern P&S's (point and shoot), modern automatic cameras (if it's auto focus it's modern!)

Respectfully,

Richard Rex
