Particularly if it's a DA* or at least WR. > Boris and Larry: You are hoping for a faster-than-f/2.8 zoom. I haven't seen such in K-mount, and I am not aware of any in other mounts (but that might be my ignorance). So, why do you think Pentax would produce such a fast zoom? I don't think so. I even doubt it'd be 2.8, as otherwise it would've been a DA* or a limited.
