Originally posted by Winder That is what I am afraid of. I want a new A*135mm f/1.8, but chances are slim to none. I hear Sigma is working on the 135mm f/2 so at least someone is still developing good glass for the K-mount. I really do feel like Pentax has struck a deal with Sigma. If Sigma will support the K-mount, Pentax has agreed not to develop any new competitive glass.
Yeah I'd be happy even with f/2
Samsung are bringing out a 135mm f/2 for their APS-C MILC this year, why cant Pentax?:ugh:
Interesting that you say you heard Sigma working on one, I emailed both Sigma and Samyang asking about a 135mm and they both replied back that they have no plans for one....
I hope what you heard it true!
Originally posted by twitch I've gave up waiting for a DA24/2 and bought a FA*24/2. It's hard to fathom why Pentax doesn't offer a fast 35mm equiv in their line up, probably the most useful and versatile FL of all.
Nice! Cant wait to see some pics from it
