That is exciting. However, I remain disappointed that these will be DA and not D FA. I am certain that in the future most DSLR's will be full-frame like Canon has developed. That will make these lenses irrelevent on future DSLRs; so much for backward compatability.

I am apprehensive about investing that much money in these lenses for that reason. When you consider how quickly digital photography has advanced in the last 5 years, I would like to see products developed that have a long life and can be adapted to the changes that will be coming.
Nonetheless I will be eagerly awaiting the tests of these new lenses.
