The Velvet 56mm F1.6, which allows you to get as close as 13cm from the tip of the lens, and the Velvet 85mm F1.8, a medium telephoto with a unique bokeh effect, are both in stock now!

Want to use K-Mount lenses on a Sony body? Pentax Japan now has you covered. They’re selling kits of lenses with the Monster adapter.

Here is the 31 Ltd on their Rakuten store.

They are are also doing the other FA Ltds and the new 50mm Classic.

Didn’t think it was worth opening a new thread for so added to this similar topic.

So Pentax is leaving no stone unturned. It's encouraging.

So are Pentax actively collaborating with "Monster", or just piggy-backing on their work?
