Oh, I think you are referring to spectacle glasses. Both Hoya and Pentax have been branding their spectacle glasses under their respective name (Pentax were probably using Hoya material anyway, but with different coating etc). Now that they have merged, they had to split the branding. Hoya on spectacle glasses and Pentax continues for their lenses. That's what I understand. Sorry for the confusion by my Q/D translations. Pentax brand for camera/lenses is too precious to drop for either companies. Ken -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
