Re: 12-24 DA Lens announcement

[Herb Chong]

it would replace my Sigma 12-24, which i don't like a lot, but it functions 
well enough to be useable. i expect optics on the Pentax to be comparable to 
the 16-45 and no worse than the 14.

I already have the 16-45, but I'm still going to want the 12-24. It's a lot 
wider on the small end, and the range is so different, that it's not at all 
redundant. It will be the lens for those times when only wide is needed. 
The 16-45, on the other hand, provides everything from moderately wide to 
portrait lens fov.
