To the extent these lenses exist at all and not a printing error, they are obviously 
ultra cheap basement level lenses not meant for those who sit on large lens 
inventories. Unfortunately, the competition has cheapened out and removed the aperture 
ring so in order for Pentax to compete at the basement level they have to do the same. 
These two lenses (if they are indeed marketed) are obvious candidates to be bundled in 
a kit with an entry level camera; possibly the "Ist". They may have bearing on the 
general shape of things when it comes to Pentax K-mount system.
