Okay, so the DA 70mm f/2.4 limited is the only one where Pentax is actually mentioned as such, but two of the other five lenses are the Tokina 50-135mm f/2.8 Pro DX Af and the Tamron 18-250mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II Macro.

Taking credit for the Tamron 18-250 is more than a strech

Yes, "three lenses which you can stick on a Pentax" might have been more accurate

Notice that the only prime lens on the list is a Pentax lens.

What I found most interesting is that Nikon can produce an IS lens that sells for the same as non-IS versions. I wonder if they can/will do this for other, longer lenses?
