Focus-hunt problems

( - 6/28/06)

Have been a die hard Nikon fan for over 20 years. Purchased my first DSLR 8 months ago, the D70. Has been great except for just this week. Whether with the stock 18-70mm lens or my 28-200AF-D-VR lens, the AF will "hunt" whenever I am trying to focus on either a red/pink flower or green leaves. Yet, the AF will snap instantly into focus on anything else! Best Nikon dealer around was stumped. Neither pressing the reset nor the DOF buttons helped. This all occured right after I tried using the AE/AF lock button. Currently in for the dreaded estimate. Manual focus works fine, but why buy a DSLR if you have to end up using MF almost always.
