Yet they did so last year, updating the roadmap on the 31st of January when they announced the HD Pentax-DA★ 11-18mm f/2.8 ED DC AW and the HD Pentax-FA 35mm f/2 and again on the 28th of February, the first day of CP+ 2019. The latter is the 'current' roadmap. |

They usually update the roadmap: - Each and every time a new lens is announced
- For CP+.
This time they skipped (1).

What is odd is that no new roadmap was published when the HD Pentax-D FA 70-210mm f/4 ED SDM WR was announced. We are still relying on the roadmap from CP+ last year with its 'HD Pentax-D FA 70-200mm f/4 tentative name' scheduled for '2019 or Later'.

Ricoh never unveiled any new item during CP+. Their last announcement is usually just before CP+ opening, most of the time two days before, once 28 days before, with a median of 2.5 days. |

Some people, myself included, are/were expecting additional announcements until CP+, like on the 13th or the 20th.

By the way, and contrary to custom, there hasn't been any updated roadmap published together with the announcement of the HD Pentax-D FA 70-210mm f/4 ED SDM WR .

That's not the point. You are living in Germany and the same distinction (abnormal or anormal vs. anomal, with 'r' vs. without) exists in German, as explained in my former post.
Your erroneously employing the (more common but here inappropriate) word anormal instead of the appropriate anomal (German) / anomalous (English) is odd for a Ph. D. in quantum optics, that's all.

Not abnormal (anormal in German) but anomalous (anomal in German, without 'r'). You wrote you have a Ph. D. in quantum optics? :hmm:

^ The Tokina atx-m 85mm f/1.8 FE is bigger and heavier than its peers, Sony and Zeiss Batis for instance. Its look and the published specifications are suspiciously close to those of the Viltrox PFU RBMH 85mm f/1.8 STM, also in Sony E mount:
- optical formula: 10 elements in 7 groups for both
- minimum focusing distance: 80cm for both
- maximum magnification: 0.125x for both
- filter size: 72mm for both
- maximum diameter: 80mm for both
- length: 93.23mm for the Tokina lens vs. 92mm for the Viltrox lens
- weight: 645g for the Tokina lens vs 626g for the Viltrox lens.
Let's wait until we know the AF motor type and see the optical diagram of the Tokina to conclude...

I've never sold a lens. Ever. Nor a camera, for that matter. I couldn't part with the attached memories.

Most probably there will be. When? Someday.
More seriously: more information should be made available at CP+ (late February).

At CP+ this year we'll get a working sample under glass instead of a mock-up without lens elements. :cool:

That and/or the retractable design.

If you mean the one this thread is about, the HD Pentax-D FA★ 85mm f/1.4, the answer is no: nothing official since the development announcement of the 26th of February last year, the mock-up showcased at CP+ and the few bits of information communicated during the CP+ workshops.
No whispers since then either.

Is it the same source as the one who gave you the following tips in October?
