Not quite sure of your point... The lens is now becoming available at £10.5 K, and will surely drop further, probably I'd suspect to under £10K.
It certainly is heavy, just how heavy I'll find out in a couple of hours at Calumet!!
I'm sure it will be interesting, but not sure how many individuals will be spending that kind of money.:shrug:
