The FA 3/35 is not even in the Pentax Germany price list since 12 months - and Germany is not a niche market for Pentax.
It is nice to know that B&H got hold of some from wherever but what kind of sales strategy is that? Pentax did have a decent lens range for 40 years until now. How can they possible let the opportunity slip to sell me a DA 1,7/35, a DA 2/24 a DA 2,8/24-70, a D-FA 2,8/70-200 to name a few and let me turn to Sigma instead? They were able to offer comparable lenses for decades and they are unable now? What does this tell me?

They can't make 'em fast enough, but they are being made. Glenn
