>>4362298Pentax secretly has it out of gearfags and is making fun of them by releasing the dumbest shit possible just to see if they'll still buy. It's not really meant to be profitable, it's just a printer company exec's hobby project. All they have to do is make enough money to pay for the very limited R&D - mostly recycled old tech.
This is the portrait lens "real" pentaxians use. SOVL, ala leica (meaning ancient and flawed design that's super compact and has a unique look). No reference to weather sealing but pentax already knows that water always gets past the seals anyways. Gearfags worry about weather sealing and comparing brands over it. It's a marketing gimmick. Photographers put a plastic bag over the thing or try not to get it too wet.
