maybe 40/2.8, 70/2.2 & 60-250/4
Thats justs leaves a fast 24 (good for aps-c bokeh and FF astro.
Not a bad line up!
What about the D-FA 50mm and 100mm macros? often overlooked, but such great glass.
I've said it in numerous threads, the 100mm Macro and the FA Limiteds will be my only glass complimenting the new body at launch, should handle nearly all of my shooting situations.
Anyways, regarding Tokina... I would not in the least be disappointed if Pentax were sharing lens designs with them. My 16-35 f4 is one of my favorite F mount lenses and was an amazing value. the f2.8 version they do is pretty incredible as well (was just too heavy and no filter abilities so I never bought it). If any new lens from Pentax performs as good as my UWA zoom does I'll be more than happy.
