It's no problem...I come off as a-hole-ish most of the time too...the internet just kills any subtleties of communication
To me...the Pentax system already offers "free" "upgrades" like weather sealing and SR and a lens to match would be nice. We still don't have any affordable sealed lenses, but anyway...
IF I were going to replace my FA zoom with something faster in the higher zoom range, I'd like something such as a 70-200 as a lightweight solution to a 300mm (or higher?) prime which is in my upgrade path. Pentax needs to make something for me, someone who won't buy non-Pentax lenses (old ones...different story!
). And then we get the whole "Sigma and Tamron make _____, why doesn't Pentax have one?"...ya know?
(That...and I'm still not 100% ready to dive into APS-C -only lenses. Once again...off topic
)...
