I fully expect that if they have gone the distance to a weather sealed body, they will start with one or two matching lenses as well. And that future lenses at the top end of the price range will also be. On the one hand, Pentax is supporting a huge, adamantly conservative, legacy community of users better than any other manufacturer. On the other hand, they are moving forwards with new features and new technologies, new users who couldn't care a whit about the legacy stuff. I think they are to be praised, not lambasted, for adding weather sealing to the K10D's portfolio.
