Rumoured prices are $1000 for the 16-50, and $1300 for the 50-135. That's nowhere near the most expensive zoom Pentax have produced; the 80-200 had a list price of $1600, and the 250-600 was $11,000 (list; street price was more like $7500-$8000). -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
