Re: Pentax Lens Roadmap?
can't beat Canon in that department, their 17/4 T/S w/separate rotations of tilt and shift is apparently outstanding and widest in the market. If I had the money, I would purchase a Canon full-frame DSLR to use with this lens alone. (Of course I would also need the money to purchase said lens.) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: Pentax Lens Roadmap?
I did. I ended up in a field in Nebraska. As long as Pentax makes money for Hoya it can continue to live. For a small company, that means making relatively quick changes. They've had some recent success with DSLR bodies and they may be trying to figure out how to capitalize on it. On Thu, Feb 24, 2011 at 7:53 PM, Ken Waller kwal...@peoplepc.com wrote: Check Mapquest.
