OK so you're just guessing.
Focus on those of us who are happy ;) . To me that 11-18 is a big surprise, I didn't expect it at all. I'm really happy to see new high end glass released, and for the different sensor sizes the brand supports (else we would soon have had a crowd of unhappy APS-C shooter saying "nothing gets released for APS-C now that the K-1 is out, that sooooo bad!!" :D ).

Mmmh, did you check the price of the 560?? You're asking longer, compact, officially full frame (I guess), for half the price... I'd love, but that doesn't look realistic at all. And very close to the 560, when there are huge gaps to fill for long lenses (300 2.8, 400 2.8, 400 f4, 500 f4, 600 f4...).

Lol, fair enough!
More seriously, hunting pressure is very high in France, it's sad to see all these animals so scared :/

Don't take it bad Uluru, but...
If every wildlife shooter is using 300mm+ lenses, there a very good reason. Give us an unlimited budget, we'll probably all choose a 500mm+ lenses to use in hides, plus a lighter option to use when walking (150-450, 150-600, 300 f4, 70-300). The farther is your subject, the higher are the chances that it will show you a natural behavior, and the better will be your pictures.
Most important factors when choosing the focal length is not the environment, but rather the mistrust and size of your subjects. In Australia (where I've been for 3 months, but I'm from France), most animals have very little to no mistrust, but still, go taking a good fairy-wren picture with a 85/135mm and share it with us, that will be quite interesting :) . But yes, you can shoot a dingo on Fraser Island with a 85mm, or even a 24mm, but that's not a representative example of what wildlife photography is.
For a lot of us (well, at least in France, where animals mistrust is huge :'( ), this is wildlife photography:
