You sound confident the 60-250 will be a winner then, inspite of the many people with hands on experiences that were disappointing at numerous tradeshows.
I look foward to hearing of your hands on with this zoom. We're just 7 days away from you being interesting and buying a sample of it. Good for you! One week and $1700 and you'll be first person on these forums to buy one and tell us how fast it focuses and how sharp it is.
Other than the flat front prism camera theres absolutely nothing new in this forum section. Hundreds of posts speculating on what pentax will do with no basis in reality. I really believed all the full frame factoids and predictions here last year. What a waste of time when pentax launched instead the Km/K2000. Now they make new cameras by making new color choices. Is that Being Interesting? And we're all suppose to fawn over each and every stripped down camera they make cause they give us colors too. Oh look, a green one. Its just like the color of your smiley face. I bet you want one too huh, with those two plastic mount lenses?
I handled the 60-250 SDM and it Sucked. Not a rumor, just a fact.
April 24th: Just 7 days this overdue to market 60-250SDM concept will just be another memory of how Pentax Roadmap really works.
Three new Pentax DA star lenses: Digital Photography Review
I am certain you'll just love your 60-250 SDM, just as I am certain $1700 is insane money for such a lens, assuming is great. If its a dog then that will be the topic for many new buyers to toss about. I hope your 60-250SDM gives you great joy. With all the extra time it took for Pentax to bring it to market it should be perfect.
