All these questions have already been answered.

No more DA* lenses will have dual AF and they will start making existing DA* lenses as KAF3 in future.

Many people will be dissapointed with this but it will generate more body sales for Pentax.

Pentax had a press release basically saying:

KAF3 is for lenses only
KAF2 is for Limited lenses and bodies.

Although really:
Cripled KAF2 is for bodies.

Very nice set of images. Reminds me of the scenery in STALKER.

Bigger lenses will have SDM. Limiteds will continue to be screw driven

I was in Scotland last year and it was not rain that was the problem for me but the cold humid air condensing on everything! Then the horizontal rain on top of that! I didn't open the waterproof compartment. The upper part of the bag had a raincover on it and was soaked through as it only prevented the rain getting through on the back.

The Lowepro Dryzone series have completely waterproof camera compartments

But cost and arm, leg and kidney.

I don't think that is an issue with the lens. The K10D's AF sensors need very strong contrast which is why it isn't very good in low light or flatter scenes.
