What's actually even MORE interesting, IMHO, is the new 25mm/2.8 from Pentax
for their 645D. First, it's crazy wider than everyone else, a true ultra
wide angle, second, it's fast.

The sensor size is the same as the S2. In fact, I believe they are the same
sensor.

Of course, it's currently vapor ware....
