Focus issues

Using short zoom. Tried different number of focal pints. Camera fails to focus. Chosen well defined subjects with lots of lines etc. sometimes finds focus, holds for a second, then loses it. Is it softwareissue? You can hear the lens hunting. I have latest firmware.
Using P mode and scenes/landscape scenes/flower and fine JPEG

Hi,Patrick What Autofocus Mode are you in.A S or C Sounds to me you may be in C mode.Maybe check out page 71 in the manual.
Just a thought.

@pedroj: should have thought of changing lenses...doh...and yes, a prime and a longer zoom both worked perfectly. I cleaned the connectors with an alcohol wipe, but to no avail. Darn. Must be the lens
