New weather resistant lens

A new weather resistant lens   branded as  a Pentax has just been announced by Ricoh, the parent company to this once glorious brand of unforgettable cameras. We all remember the Spotmatic, a very important design that alas, had that annoying screw mount. The company had it's ops and downs but the brand has survived along with some of the traditional Pentax qualities.  This lens has a 20-40mm F 2.8 zoom range and appears to be well built.
