Originally posted by Adam Pentax will launch lenses to fill gaps in the current lineup when the FF comes out. Until then you can always stock up on legacy glass or DA lenses originally meant for FF like the 200 and 300mm.
I think it will be interesting to see what gaps they don't fill immediately. I'm rather hoping they re-release some of the FA lenses like they did for the 645Z. Unlike a new system, like Fuji has to deal with, Pentax has an advantage in that they already have a full arsenal of very good lenses they can draw from. No need to re-invent everything right away. They can slowly replace them over time, kind of like Nikon is
still doing.
They've already acknowledged they'll rely on screw-drive for a while. This makes sense, since small lenses are an important part of their strategy. As long as they continue to have strong screw-drive AF in their FF bodies they can have a great offering out of the chute.
