I doubt so: I'd expect other signals then.
Since the only replacment or upgrade where the two DFA macros, while they
created six new DA lenses in between, the last FA lense from 2002, and
lots of A/F/FA lenses gone by now, I expect
- the digital sensor size is settled by now: No more full size sensor to
come.
Hmmm. I certainly hope not. But we'll see... Actually, I suspect that's
pretty much what Pentax and other camera manufacturers are saying, too.
I don't think you can draw any conclusions about their long-term plans
based on what lenses they are releasing now; indeed, I'm not sure there
are any these days. (The camera market in general is certainly not in a
"settled" state, I think.)
Larger sensors might go for medium format sized bodies
- little work on analog at all.
