Pentax宣布正在开发中的DA 14mm F2.9 ED (IF)镜头，APS幅面，支持全时手动调焦。

A second PENTAX digital product under development - a wide-angle interchangeable lens for the *ist D digital SLR - also has been announced. The smc PENTAX-DA 14mm F2.8 ED (IF) is extremely compact, measuring 2.7 inches long and 3.3 inches in diameter. Featuring the reliable PENTAX KAF lens mount and high-performance 12-element, 11-group optics, it offers a focal length of 14mm (equivalent to 21.5mm in the 35mm format), and a minimum focusing distance of 0.7 inches. An innovative Quick-Shift Focus system enables the lens user to instantly switch the focus mode from auto to manual with a slight twist of the focus ring. The PENTAX-DA 14mm also offers a 77mm-size filter thread for quick, effortless mounting and removal of a filter.

上面英文新闻稿里面这句话有误：

“minimum focusing distance of 0.7 inches”

Pentax德国网站的说法是：最近对焦距离为17cm，差不多7英寸。原来是美国人小数点点错了。

美国果然有人才，又点错了小数点。

Pentax德国网站的规格出来了，14/2.8的最近对焦距离应为17cm，约7英寸，而非英文新闻稿的0.7英寸。首贴已更新。

老西，

搞到几张CANONN1D MKII的样照，贴在隔壁1D MKII的帖子里了，去看看。

好象这个开始流行了。http://www.xitek.com/info/showarticle.php?id=1477

希望PENTAX-DA 14mm F2.8 ED (IF)这宝贝上市的价格不要超过US$350.
