Re: New lenses from Pentax

[Paul Stenquist]

Some M series lenses are very good, and the quality is generally 
superior to F and FA. The M 50/1.4 is easily the equal of other Pentas 
50mm lenses. The M 135/3.5 isn't super fast but it's probably better 
than other 135/3.5 offerings. The M 35/2.0 is an excellent lens, and 
the M 400/5.6 is a big improvement over the K version. I'm sure there 
are more, but these will serve as an example.

Looks like Pentax will continue the tradition to keep things compact. 
It is
also good to see the FA style aperture ring is gone eventually. But 
it says
Quick-Shift Focus System works when mounted on *istD, what about other
cameras?
