DA 16-85mm coming from Amazon
1

I ordered this lens on December 3 although it was on back order at the time, as Amazon Prime offered it at the bargain price of $717.  Today I received an email from Amazon advising that it should be delivered on Tuesday, Jan 20, although it does not yet show as having shipped. I notice that the Amazon Prime price is now $750, so I'm glad I ordered it when I did!

I'm really eager to see how it performs vs. my Pentax DA 17-70 and Sigma 17-70 Contemporary.
