I know this lens in not out yet, but what is up with that price tag? Newest VR, and that doubles the price? Old version is $1350 right now with rebate, and $1300 for the imported version. New lens is $2700. Same aperture values for both lenses, so no more light. It does have Nano coating and some other upgrades, but that is a serious jump in price.
Is the old version that terrible? I know that it is not 'fast' glass, but is it really soft or distorted or something that the newer lens is supposed to improve? What gives?
