Are we sure the DFA lenses weren't for the 645? Those were
characterized as "DFA" in the past.

Since they're not offering some 35mm film camera and they're not
offering some FF digital, there would be no need to develop some DFA
lens. Assuming they are developing a DFA set of lenses, including a
fairly expensive 1.0, they are probably developing the camera(s)
that will be using those lenses. 35mm film or 35mm-sized digital,
aka FF.
Providing those lense just for the sake of we oltimers that still
use 35mm cameras would be even more far fetched than building a FF
digital.
LF (all that assuming that information on lenses IS real, of course)

If this roadmap is for real, it means Pentax is releasing a FF
camera,
Nope.
Doesn't mean that at all.
Pentax can be:
- making lenses that will work with the installed base of 35mm
film
cameras
- making lenses that will work with a Samsung full frame camera,
since Samsung has the money and grudge to go fight Sony
- changed what DFA means, such as to "with the adapter, works on
the
MF camera body"
It could even be all three of those at once.
Or, of course, they could be contemplating a full frame camera, and
want
to give themselves some leeway with lenses depending on which way
they
make up their mind, and in the meantime, causing mass outbreaks of
hope
in the customer base is a fine thing.
