Okay, I'll be more direct...
1) I tried a Sinar camera at my dealers with the 80mm lens and it would NOT af at all in dim light, only hunted continually. BUT my Mamiya AFD2 and 80mm Mamiya lens was able to lock focus instantly in that same situation. (This was a few months ago with the 75 back on it.)
2) The same Sinar camera would not AF accurately in bright light either -- it would lock, but continually missed focus by a large margin, like 20-30 cm off at 3 or 4 meter distance. (Cannot remember if it was front or back, but was always the same.)
3) Then in Puerto Rico, David had this same front-focus (or back) AF problem with his Sinar body and 80mm lens.
So given your response above I am now curious if these are isolated problems with these two cameras, the 80mm lenses themselves, or are they endemic to the entire system? If they are isolated problems with these two cameras, you should be able to fix them ASAP for these two customers... However, neither has been able to get them repaired or replaced with working units and it's been a few months, so that leaves me assuming it is an endemic problem with the camera's AF abilities or possibly a problem with the manufacture of the lenses...
Cheers,
