New DA 12-35/3.5-4.5 WR SDM

"HOYA will get release ready in the time. Perhaps it is announced in the CP+2011 and thinks it to be release in the beginning of March."

Paperware at this stage, though. But yet it is good to know that Pentax/Hoya is still developing new lenses actually! ;-)

I really hope it is DC, not SDM. Looks like an interesting lens... albeit somewhat redundant.

We need a 28mm DA prime! A DA L 28mm 2.8 would be fine.

I have the A version of this lens... it is extremely useful. Very high resolution too.

I would like a modern version with digital coatings etc.

I wish they would make DA limiteds that were not tessar design so that we could have wonderful lenses like the 28mm 2.8 with digital coatings, quick shift, etc.
