How often would you want to change a lens when your camera is wet?  Probably not a lot, which is why I am typically using zooms when WR is needed.  The DA16-85 has a great range and can be quite good if used correctly.  But there's also the DA*16-50, DA18-135, even the cheap 18-55s and 18-50's you could get.

I suppose it would be nice to have some WR Limiteds besides the excellent DA20-40 Limited, but I'd rather they fill out their FF lineup.  And maybe these new primes will be WR...

I'm glad we have WR lenses at the price points we do and hope the new ones aren't priced in the stratosphere
