Is the SMC the large version or small?

Apparently this is in the Japanese language DC magazine,in an interview with Mr Kitazawa, Head of Pentax R&D. Apparently, the focus is on the 645 though. Now where is my Japanese dictionary......

I saw that too. Fantastic if true, with full backward lens compatibility.....

Is this an Adaptall 2? Will it work with a 90mm Adaptall 2 macro?

Doesn't look too bad, plenty of detail but some noise, but it shows how far sensors have come in a short time.

There is only one new prime that has AF and although it is not 28mm, it is the DA35mm F2.4. New it is around £130-£150.
If you want 28mm, then the only new one is the Sigma 28mm F1.8 at around £330.

Second-hand, you could try and find the Pentax F28mm F2.8 or FA28mm F2.8.
However, it may take a while in finding one for sale.

Apart from that, there is not a lot, apart from spending a lot on the FA31mm F1.8 Limited.
If you can go slightly wider, the 24/2.8 Sigma af is good, but screw drive af is slow and noisy, near focusing is good. Use with a hood.
