UPDATED -> Only a posting error? (It was “Many Pentax lenses discontinued!”)
UPDATE: Now the official www.pentax.ca website is not showing the DA lenses anymore. Thanks to the two comments on this post we rechecked the website and noticed the change.
Few hours ago the website listed following lenses as discontinued:
smcp-DA 16-45/4 ED AL Dec. ’03
smcp-DA 14/2.8 ED IF June ’04
smcp-DA 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL Dec. ’04
smcp-D FA Macro 50mm F2.8 Dec. ’04
smcp-D FA Macro 100mm F2.8 Dec. ’04
smcp-DA 40mm F2.8 Limited Feb. ’05
smcp-DA 50-200mm F4.0-5.6 ED Jun. ’05
smcp-DA 12-24mm F4.0 ED AL [IF] Nov. ’05

Why should Pentax discountinue this lenses? The answer could be that new lenses are coming! There is also someone who believes the new lenses will work on Pentax Fullframe cameras…(we don’t believe it!)

Utter rubbish!
The link doesn’t show that at all. Nor does anyone outside of Hoya/Pentax know anything about new FF digital lenses. New lenses is a given, but FF digital???
Total disinformation and FUD.
If you click the link and actually read what is on the page you will see that none of the DA lenses have been discontinued…
Posting rumours without checking anything…
