That make sense. It will be the new standard lens. The D FA label
probably
(almost certainly) indicate that it will be full frame and that it will
fit
film 645 as well. That strongly indicate that it have aperture ring
(thank
God).
That's a bit of a stretch. I think the "D" prefix pretty much says
that it is intended for the digital bodies.
But D FA designates full frame for K-mount lenses. It would be confusing if
they use different nomeclature for 645 lenses. If the 55/2.8 is not full
frame I would presume they would have labeled it DA, not D FA.
