DA Zoom Limited DA* Zoom UltraW to Short Tele
Mar 4, 2012

I am intrigued about the New Pentax road map. Especielly the Zoom limited that seems to go from around 10-30mm. Also the DA* Zoom from 17-70 range looks sweet.
I wonder what the specs could be?
For the limited UW zoom If I the designer I'd aim for:
Stellar IQ
Compact size
Robust usual limited build quality
Fast as possible but that would conflict with the size, so I'd would make a compromise at F 3.2
11-27mm would be my sweet spot, if that range could enable increase in speed, decrease in size, increase in durability increase in IQ.
Internal Focusing
Price range 700-1200 usd
Then there's The DA* Zoom that seems to be in the range from 17-70.
I'd wish for:
Weather Sealing improved?
an inproved SDM focus mechanism,
because of the increase in range I could see it as an acceptable compromise to go to 3.2 F stop, to keep the size/ weight/ price down.
Internal Focusing .
Stellar IQ
Price 800-1200 usd

Brent
