Probably not many people buy 80-200/2.8 which is very expensive and has no motor > sth like USM, AF-S etc. They MUST introduce sth new to find new clients, since now salesmen usually advice them to buy Canon/Nikon because of not the good optics but because these brands has above technologies and IS, VR! And everyone can see that pros use Canon/Nikon gear (sport,journalists etc). I just wonder if Pentax is able to give some journalists in future pro cameras+lenses just for advertisement > Alek
