You know how many people would have bought the upcoming 70-200mm Sigma or Tammi (or whatever starting focal length they are going to be) if they were to come out 1st w/o second thought about this 'ethereal' Pentax lens no one had any confidence was every going to ship... but now there's anywhere from some chance to a good chance they will wait for the Pentax?
They [Pentax corporate] should buy you a new Factory JCW MINI in thanx Chris!
<- aimed @ Pentax corporate!
