What lens Are We Waiting For?
A nice moderate wide on APSC that would trump the 35 2.4 as a walk around.
I would buy one!

2nd, would love to replace my poorly af'ing DA*300 with an updated version with of course a decent AF motor. I'd like a focus limiter on that as well.

I absolutely need a DFA 20mm f1.4
I would also like a wider prime.
Sigma make a 20mm f1.4 which isn't in K mount.
Irix and Laowa deliver wider in K mount - if you can find one in stock.
I have an M20mm f4 - it just isn't up to the K1.
The 12-24 isn't up to the K1 either (it's not supposed to be).
Other roap map lenses like the standard and medium telephoto primes are not a priority in my view (or even necessary) since the Ltds, inter alia, are excellent on the K1.

I couldn't afford one if Pentax gave birth to either so all I can do is .......dream on!

We have the pro class 70-200 f/2.8 but I'd like something more like the 50-135mm for my K-1, so a 70-200 f/4 would be perfect.
So use the 60-250mm f4 ... had mine on the K-1 this afternoon and it performed superbly.
Has yours been modified Mike? I really do not want to modify mine but if it helps deal with vignetting then I might go for an FA*80-200
That's it - a D-FA*70-200 in silver with BIG PENTAX letters in black on the lens hood....

No it's bulk standard, personally I'm not going to mess with my favourite lens just to lose what I consider to be a easily corrected problem. I also tend to crop most of my shots anyway so it's really not much of an issue for me.
Besides, Haris wanted a 70-200mm f4 so if you crop the 60-250mm to the appropriate focal lengths there would be no Vignetting to talk of anyway

I was wondering at this point what lens are we waiting for particularly? And i mean one that we will actually buy, not something that we think will just fill a gap.
I'm waiting for the full frame fisheye zoom, which could be a 17-28mm as it was in the film era, but might be something else. I use the 10-17mm quite a bit and would like the same effect on my K-1.
How about you?
Best regards, John
