There are no new DFA lenses. The high-end fast lenses that Pentax
will release next year are all DA lenses without aperture rings. The
only DFA lens is for the 645. No DFA lenses for 35mm or APS-C are on
the horizon.
The two macro lenses are D FA and new in my book. I doubt they will be
the only D FA's in the line-up. I expect there will be D FA* in the
future as well.

Why? Pentax doesn't make much in the way of film cameras, and doesn't
sell much in the way of film cameras. I expect D-FA will be the standard
for 645 mount, but that we won't see more than one or two in K mount,
and even that many is unlikely. D-FA was a relic of not wanting to
totally redesign the macros, that's all.
