They will cover the spectrum and be of the F2.8 variety. Cost is up in the air I believe. My question is why didn't they think about this before hand and have the lens available NOW with the introduction of the K100 and K10D? Not a smart move on their part and very short-sighted in my estimation. Gerry They're made by tokina. I'd look at the MTF ratings first. National Sarcasm Society. Like we need your support.

I like Pentax qaulity, just the lenses are sometimes tough to find. At least back then it was.
