o, i wanna find out how much the len  is over-priced.

fun fact:
sony SAL70200G $1979
canon EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS USM $1969
nikon f2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR $1799
canon EF 70-200mm f2.8L USM $1329

assume all the above lens provide similar performance with same level of camera body & not comparing universal 3rd party lens

*if the len is not big rip-off, i might consider buying it. actually i knew sony is gonna rip u off right after u buy their dslr, and i just wanna figure out approx how much is it.

b4 i bought a sony 50/1.4, i went to canon to check out their 50/1.4.
i'm not sure how to read teh spec properly,
sony is like
# Image circle format: 35mm (47º angle of view)
# Lens configuration: 7 elements in 6 groups
# Aperture blades: 7 (circular aperture)
# Minimum aperture: F22
# Minimum focus distance: 0.45m / 17-11/16"
# Filter size: 55mm
canon is like
#Focal Length & Maximum Aperture: 50mm 1:1.4
#Lens Construction: 7 elements in 6 groups
#Diagonal Angle of View: 46°
#Closest Focusing Distance: 0.45m / 1.5 ft.
#Filter Size: 58mm
guess they r pretty much the same quality.

canon sells it for $400.
sony sells it for $400.
therefore i assume there isn't a sony rip-off, and i decided to buy it. *since i kinda need it.
i think i'm wierd when i need to make decisions...lol
