Looking for primes for digital is a wise decision. Waiting for full
   frame is even wiser. Personally I couldn't care less for current
   Pentax zooms in the *ist d equation. The focal ranges are all
   scrambled up to the point of rendering it useless. Trans-standards
   become what, portrait zooms ? Tele-zooms are pushed towards the
   long end, where image quality drops anyway. Wide angle zooms barely
   fit the standard lens bill: we're back in the era where 35-70 was
   an amazing lens.
