I'm a big fan of The Americans, and just saw the announcement on Magnum's

People do give a great deal of credit for the success of The Americans as a
work in its own right as an object rather than just a collection of photos to

I think they still call it that.
The "dollar" used to be a specific silver coin, and paper currency US dollars
were "payable in silver" (or gold if you had gold-back dollars), but the dollar
hasn't been "convertible to specie" for more than 50 years now (86 years for gold).

Except that I am a PENTAX shooter. I don't need a "reason". I made that choice
years ago and see no reason to change now.
But there are notable absences of some more desirable focal lengths & maximum
apertures from the current Pentax lens roadmap.
Where you going to find a FULL FRAME
It might be like the Co-Design deal Pentax had with Tokina where all the Pentax
mount 12-20 lenses were branded Pentax, and Tokina only sold lenses for Nikon,
Cannon & Sony under their own name.
The Pentax mount 15-30mm f/2.8 in PKaf mount is *ONLY* available from Pentax,
but the same lens is
Considering that about the only reason in existence to use a Pentax body is
to shoot Pentax glass, I'm not seeing an issue. If you really want to use a
non Pentax lens, there are plenty of non Pentax bodies to choose from.

As I noted in response to the other Sigma thread, Sigma stopped making lenses in
Pentax KAF mounts several years back.
They've been selling off their stock of Pentax mount lenses on an "as available"
basis for at least a year & none of their ART lenses have been available in
Pentax mount.

Must be a pretty stout bridge to put up with all those impacts.
