Is that so? I see on the lens roadmap things that are wanted by the group:
- 560mm/f5.6 would be the lens in the middle of 500mm/f5.6 and 600mm/f5.6
- 15-85mm would be an update for 16-50mm wich was requested.
- The travelzoom not on my list but requested.
- wide zoom could be an update (WR) for 12-24mm
- zoom limited, very new to everyone I guess (24-36mm?) (all metal?)
- DA telezoom, this could be the wanted consumerzoom
- the much requested 1.4x TC is on it.
And then there are still some requests to fill.
When I started this survey overhere I did think about the group that was to be considdered active. I made the bar at minimum of 50 posts on the forum. At that time there where
3000 members above that bar and by the time PhotoKina is there will be over
4000 members that active on this forum. And probably still some demand for SDM-II | 24mm/f2.0 | 85mm/f1.4 | 135mm/f2.0 | long macro | fast telezoom.
