Win a Pentax Limited Lens: Raffle Now Live!

I have to believe the K-3 II replacement will arrive. No doubt the awaited fast W/A zoom, the DA* 11-18mm f/2.8 as well. Possibly the talked about DFA 70-200mm f/4 (I think), which for me with APS-C would have to be awfully good, and compact, to compete against my DA 55-300mm HD WR. It can keep to f/4.5 out to 200mm with very good quality and more range at the short end.

Whatever Pentax introduces in 2019, it will have to wait until after I buy a crowbar. Only then will I have even half a chance of prying the money out of AggieMom.

Next year‘s preview for me. I dare to expect that d-fa 85 will be presented and that it will replace my 77ltd.
Fullframe TC would be interesting, especially with new or updated tele lenses.
Maybe we will see new camera bodies rather than lenses. 100 years anniversary could mean an extra surprise, I am ready.

The D FA* 85mm 1.4 has already been presented eleven months ago:

At least one new body is sure for 2020. Have you been at one of the Pentax fan events?
