Hi Pentaxians ..not posted for a bit but ...over my morning coffee I found this ...

Introducing the new flagship PENTAX K-AF.

Newly integrated ‘tri-lens technology’ means you’ll never have to worry about changing the lens ever again! Simply rotate the bezel to the required focal length and you’ll be shooting in no time – whatever the subject.

After much research, the designers decided on the following focal lengths:

15-30mm
24-70mm
70-200mm

It was felt that these cover a broad range enabling the photographer to capture a wide array of scenes whist retaining maximum performance.

The PENTAX K-AF features a robust magnesium alloy body, with full weather sealing and in-body stabilisation.

RRP £2,999.99

Epic stuff - as long as it is f2.8 throughout the range!

Sign of a struggling company, coming out with a gimick that will not catch on.

Where do you fit the 1.4TC?

Nothing about 144K video.

No mention of instantaneous AF or point-and-forget tracking.

It's doomed, I tell ye, DOOOOMED!!!

They forgot to say that it works equally well upside down, thus missing out on the Australian and New Zealand market.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

I take it the lens array was produced in association with Bolex.
