Yes, their SW lenses are a *lot* more expensive than the normal AF or
AF-I versions of the same lens. In the UK, the 80-200/2.8 is pretty
much twice the price to have the SW version. Never could understand
how Canon manage to make the same technology so cheaply that they can
fit it on lenses across the range. It must be fairly cheap because
Sigma offer it too on a good number of their EOS fit versions. Aren't
we lucky!
