I just tried my new DAF 50 1.4 on my K-3. Holy cow. Blazing speed. Probably the fastest focusing lens I have. So far I am impressed.

Exactly

A brand new K-S1 or K-50 can be purchased new for $400, and a used K-3 and K-3ii are pretty inexpensive right now which both have KAF4. If you prefer not to upgrade, there are plenty of APS-C lens options for any pre-2013 Pentax DSLRs.

I thought that if you order before 4 pm, it get's shipped the same day. Don't understand why, if people were getting "in stock" notifications mid-morning yesterday, pre-orders wouldn't ship out the same day.

No tracking. Still in the "In stock, order sent to warehouse" stage since mid-day yesterday. Was hoping to get it tomorrow (I'm two days' shipping time from B&H), but now looking at Monday.....actually next Thursday for me due to my work schedule. I am having it shipped expedited delivery (but apparently not expedited processing). :(

Monochrome, isn't it a rule that you can't put the new DFA*50 in your signature until you actually take possession of it? ;)

Got this response from Ricoh America just now: "All of our dealers are getting product (D-FA 50mm) in this week. B&H should have their product any day, our Ricoh Imaging Website will also have the product ready to sell tomorrow.
Please let me know if you need anything else.
- The Ricoh Imaging Team"

B&H went from expected availability of July 24 to date unavailable :(. I paid in full since I used PayPal. If I were to cancel and wait for a 3-5 day refund, the ones on Amazon will probably be gone. Ughh.

Why 16 versus 22? Less aperture blade weight?

I don't understand that statement. It's less than each of the FF 2.8 zooms when they were first released, including the 24-70 which was $1299 USD at launch. The 15-30 was $1449 USD at launch and the 70-200 was $1796 USD at launch.

Anybody know the official release date in the U.S.? B&H is showing July 24, and Amazon is showing tomorrow.

What are the chances of the DFA 50 being in stock after preorders are filled? The Japan Ricoh Imaging Facebook and online webstore, using google translates to the following, not sure what to make of it, if anything:

Ricoh Imaging Japan:
In addition, although it is very popular, HD PENTAX - D FA ★ 50mm F1.4 SDM AW, but if it is the current reservation at the online store it will be shipped after August. I am sorry, thank you for your understanding. It was saDa of online store charge.
?????? (PENTAX by RICOH IMAGING) - Home | Facebook

Ricoh Imaging Store in Japan:
We have received an appointment that exceeds the assumption, and we plan to deliver it after August 2018 for orders after July 6, 2018 (Fri).
We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you by our customers, but thank you very much for your kind understanding.

Adorama is showing $3 less than B&H. Not that it matters much.

Count me in. Looking forward to the release of the DFA*50 1.4. This fills void in what was previously covered by my 43 and 55.
