That 645D lens looks interesting.
I wonder if the SR means it has internal shake reduction? The first Pentax lens to have SR considering the 645D system is fixed sensor and now we see it will stay that way...
Edit, and it is a macro, that's a beautiful piece of engineering.
I presume it does. Living open the possibility for some future 24x36 lenses (telephoto lenses, in particular) to have shake reduction as well.
Have you guys also seen the
HD in the name "HD Pentax-D FA645 Macro 90mm f/2.8 ED AW SR"?
Could this point out a new generation of 645 lenses designed for highly pixelized 645 sensors?
Could this mean that the 645D II or 645Dn or whatever its name is would have more than the rumoured 50 Mpixels, knowing that some Teledyne Dalsa 645 sensors have as much as 80 Mpixels?
