New canon PL zooms

[jgardner]

These lenses look awesome. I'm way more interested in the glass than the $16,000 camera. I read the press release. Anybody got a line on sale date or price??? They would go nice with my hotrod.

To clarify im talking about the 2 lenses they announced at NAB. I'm really interested in the 14-60 2.6 where and when can we get this thing?

The lenses are also in that price range, if you didn't know.

 

[jgardner]

Thanks, I figured I just couldn't fine a number anywhere.

So the 14-60 is $20K?
