$1300+ is not that terrible much? Wouldnt you rather see a test comparison to the $139 typical smc-A/70-210/F4 before judging that $1300+ price?

The Canon 70-200/4L IS runs about $1,100. Both lenses are weather-sealed f/4. The Canon has IS built in. But the Pentax offers 10mm wider and 50mm longer range. If I were still shooting for newspapers I would be chomping at the bit to get this lens.
