But only if designed for film as well. It seems like this 1.5 is a godsend to film lenses that are mushy in the corners but sharp in the center. Former dogs become star performers until you stick them on a film body and once again they become dogs.
Faktor 1.5 focal means a 29mm will be like a 43mm, the "normal lens".
Basicly this doesn't mean very much in every day photography, but probably
that Pentax will make some new widelangles, rectiliniar and fish-eye's, in
the near future - and some new standard zooms, like a 2.8/16-60mm (24-90mm).
Or maybe a SMC FA 2.8/19mm-47mm (28-70mm). It might be great fun to use
theese on a 35mm body? I'll certainly like the latter.
