Yeah, perhaps, but Pentax is still selling the 16-45, at least on Amazon, and you'll pay a bit more for it than for the 16-85.

If that's new, it's old stock. If you look closely you'll see it isn't sold by Amazon or Pentax directly, it's "sold by ...". The 16-45 hasn't been produced for a while now.
