My lens would be the DA example, with the quick shift and metal mount. The Tamron from what I can remember using it used to hunt a lot during focussing on the K20D. The DA was / is a lot more assured.
I still have access to the Tamron as I gave it to my father in law, I'll see if I can borrow it for a couple of days and pair it off against the DA on my K-5 and report back

I had the same experience with the Tammy and Pentax. The Pentax is round about the same in speed if something a tiny bit quicker, BUT it is a lot better to find the focus.
I never touched the tammy again.
