See below from Boz's site. Does the aperture ring and 35mm coverage mean that Pentax 
is planning a 'full frame' pro-ish digital, why else would the new lenses have such 
coverage?

'According to DPreview, Pentax has announced two new and exiting lenses: smc Pentax-D 
FA Macro 100mm F2.8 and smc Pentax-D FA Macro 50mm F2.8. Both are part of a new lens 
series with two very exciting aspects: an aperture ring and coverage for the full 35 
mm image circle. It seems that the "DA" series (no aperture ring, APS-sensor coverage) 
aims at low-budget customers whereas the "D FA" is for the professionals and 
enthusiasts.'
