Pentax always does as superb a job as they possibly can making the front element flat by producing very complex convex indentations on the inside of the outer element. Please compare a Nikon 14mm F2.8 with the Pentax 14mm - the Pentax is virtually flat, the Nikon the front element is HUGE and extremely heavy - also, the Nikon much, MUCH more expensive, and extremely unwieldy on the camera. They've done a similar thing with the 10-17 fisheye - have a look at other makes' fisheyes if you want to see protruding front elements.
I LOVE that lens! Makes for MANLY selfies!
Cheers,
Cameron
