I'm sure they are not selling that well at the price they are listed... (in Italy >2500 euro, something like $2800...) I too am hoping for a replacement, if they can make it lighter and less expensive, and, better for me, for a FA* 70-200/4.
I saw that also the FA 85/2.8 Soft, the A 15/3.5 and the 28/3.5 Shift are listed with a limited availability... Well, what about a FA* 14/2.8 AL? Or a FA 13/3.2 AL Limited... :-) Gianfranco PS: I really cannot understand why there's a bodycap for the *Ist D listed on its own... is it any different from the usual K mount one?? ----- Original Message ----- From: R�diger Neumann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 6:22 PM Subject: Discontinue of the FA* 2.8/80-200 > Hallo > on > http://www.pentax.de/pentaxeurope/pentaxeurope_prod/pentaxeurope/v2/de/photo > /pricelist.html > is a new Pentax Preislist (starting from 15.9.2003) > > In the list is a footnote that the FA*2.8/80-200 will not be available for > long anymore. > This is the same with the FA 35-80, which has already a replacement with the > FAJ 28-80. > > Will there be a replacement of the 2.8/80-200 ??? hopefully a FA* 4/70-200 > which is not so heavy and cheeper. ===== __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
