New Tokina lens.

As some of you know Tokina share some lenses with Pentax so a new lens their might mean a new lens for Pentax

The new lens is the 16-28mm f/2,8
Very limited range so I wonder how good it will sell, the price is €1125

here is the translated site link

ps it even has weather-sealing and SDM

Stefan, we are still waiting for the Tokina 11-16mm more than two years after its release. I'd suggest that this will be lucky to make it to Pentax by 2014

Indeed, I rather have the 11-16 also btw, pentax and tokina already has the DA*16-50 so it's a bit of a strange lens to bring out.

Not really, following the link, the text describes a lens that covers a full size sensor, presumably 135mm full frame.

At the wide end the two lenses would give roughly equivalent fields of view.

Thank you Steve, that could be it.

Also Tokina no longer make the 16-50 or the 50-135mm so for Canon/Nikon users the 16-28mm could be quite handy, especially with weather sealing.
