But the catch 22 is that without these lenses in the lineup, it's difficult to convince pros to invest in the system. So if they want to be a serious player, they can't really afford not to either.
I don't think they want to be a 'me too' volume DSLR producer, Vernon. That's not working for Canon and Nikon as their profits plunge and employees are laid off.
They only need some good offerings in the very long department, and the 560mm, 150-450 and 300+TC are that.
Sony offer a heap of lenses in the 50mm or less category for E-mount but nothing more than 200mm.
