Wow! An average price increase of 40-75% on the new models of the
70-200mm f2.8, 35mm f1.4 and 200mm f2.0. IMO, they are trying to make
up for slower body sales and projected slower lens sales further out.


I wonder if Nikon (and Canon) have realized that their old lenses
can't keep up with the high-density sensors and that they needed to up
the quality? Canon't two latest teles are priced beyond belief.


They are making up for the weaker dollar.
