It is difficult times for this industry.  What they are able to release are all nice to have.  Since Tamron release a 70-210/4 we might get a Pentax 70--200/4 sooner than otherwise.  And it will ...

It looks like a good one. Bring on the 85.

If they release it tomorrow (20th) it is still a spring release (in the Northern hemisphere) anyway.  ;-)

I've not been following this very closely since I didn't bother to read the review after the file changes were pointed out.  It seems to me the thread has diverged into defensiveness along other ...

What Canon camera had bad Sony sensor in it?

Very nice lens!

& That's not a bad thing either.

So... Should I read through the comments first and then the review? Wow, over 1000 comments on a dslr review in 2018? I don't think I can make it past the first couple hundred - sorry guys.

Thank you for the information, I might have read the review as though it contained useful comparison information.  Saved me some trouble.

The gallery looks really good. Thank you for compiling it.

No.  I was always interested in the FF Pentax so I went with the K1 last year and find it excellent for my purposes.  I did use K5 and K3 for many years and found them to be excellent cameras.

One can get that 10mm new for about 380$ and it is quite a good UWA. Might be possible to get a copy in the used market.  It gets my vote for aps/c.  I really like the rectilinear 12mm for its low ...

Brilliant!

Thank you for the review.  A couple of notes to make; Magenta cast in the (nearly) blown out red channel (common with Nikon and Pentax cameras) requires a few exposure adaptations & post ...

But they could rename the K1 MkII to the Big Mac1 MkII (With secret pixel shift sauce).  :-)

Maybe he was sincere & you're the sarcastic one?  ;-)

He noticed the AF is faster.  Which is good.  Looks like I'll save some money by not upgrading to K1II and have more time to save for lenses if one is released in a few months.  Win - win.

I only just saw this thread so I missed the 1st 4 days of the delay already.  :-)  I'd guess Ricoh wish they still had some of the manufacturing capability that Hoya sold off.

Since FA 31 & 77 are film-era, I can say I'm happy to use them on the K1. We just have to be patient on that.  DFA* 85 is still on the road-map.  Also they said they'll begin a refresh of the ...

DPR, thank you for posting your Ricoh CP+ interview. That premium UWA zoom lens for crop sensors they have planned for this summer looks very interesting. The FA* 85mm f/1.4 is on my 'watch...
