I doubt we'll have a D FA 55-300, too.

One can choose a lens 50% heavier, 20% larger, 20% slower focusing and 50% more expensive. That is reasonable.
But saying nobody should be able to get the lighter, smaller, faster focusing, less expensive 55-300 RE PLM is completely unreasonable. Made worse by the insult.

What makes you so sure it can be done? Increasing the format covered while keeping or improving the image quality, keeping a light focusing element to allow PLM focusing, keeping a small size and retractable design, keeping a low price.

It makes no sense to assume all this is doable. As usual, when people are accusing Pentax of not thinking.

A very bad idea!

See, what you're asking is to remove the 55-300 RE PLM, which is an affordable, compact, good quality and very fast focusing lens. Those characteristics won't be matched by a D FA.
Think about it.
