Ricoh published updated Pentax K-mount lens roadmaps:

Here is what’s new:

1. There is a new lens on the roadmap: DA Standard Zoom Lens.
2. The Fish-Eye Zoom Lens has disappeared from the roadmap.
3. All road-mapped lenses are now scheduled for ‘2019 or later‘. In the former roadmap, the HD Pentax-D FA 70-200mm f/4 was scheduled for ‘2019 Spring‘, the HD Pentax-D FA★ 85mm f/1.4 for ‘2019‘ and the other lenses for ‘2019 or later‘. There is no such distinction anymore.
4. The HD Pentax-D FA★ 85 mm f/1.4 is now above the HD Pentax-D FA 70-200mm f/4. It was the opposite in the former roadmap.
