I thought not. Nothing special, nothing that replicates what's
currently available in 35mm lenses. It comes down to the question,
what's more expensive a raft of lenses or a camera body. The fact that
Pentax's marketing department is beginning to wake up to backward
compatibility as a selling point might be significant.

No, it's not a fisheye. Probably 4.0. But I can live with that kind of stop,

Fisheye??
Reasonably fast, (better than f4.0)?

The forthcoming Pentax DA 12-50 will give 18mm rectilinear angle of view on the
*istD(S). That's wide enough for anything I shoot.

The problem I see is that there is still no real wide angle solution,
unless you go Canon.

Has there been any more word on the MF Pentax 22Mp?
Is it just trial or is there a release date?
Kind regards

There is no MF 22Mp. There will be an 18Mp within the next
twelve months (larger sensor than 35mm, smaller than 645),
if current plans are followed.
There may be a new low-end 35mm first, but the MF digital
will come out before any follow-on to the *ist-D.
