The problem is (I think) that Pentax really has too many lenses in this segment. 18-55 II, 16-45, 17-70 & 16-50.

Edit: Not forgetting the 18-55 WR (I should have remembered I have one!)

One at least had to go and I wouldn't have expected it to be the 18-55 or the 16-50

It looked like it had lead an interesting life so far

Thinking of selling your 12-24?

Yes there is the reflection but I think the biggest give-away is the lens that was there before it was photo-shopped, have a closer look

Ken, I think WR stands for weather-resistant (according to the Pentax UK web site anyway).
I think you're right with regard to the lens, it's not a step change more of an incremental upgrade. It does look a little nicer but uses the same optical formula with the addition of curved aperture blades. I doubt many DFA 100 owners will be upgrading to be honest.

Not at all Jason, I find your posts very informative particularly as it's your line of work after all
