 Nikon SLR not focussing properly - Manatee
I bought a Pentax K-r a while back that had a pronounced front focus tendency. I sent it back and bought the predecessor K-x.

Worth checking, especially with a new camera if the pictures aren't as sharp as you hoped.

You can use a focus chart like this

to see how far in front or behind the point you are aiming at the camera is focusing (set spot focus).
