Massive Sony price increases on most lenses.

Sony has increased the prices on most of their full-frame lenses, up about 5-15% depending on model.  The more expensive models were raised about $200, like the 70-200mm, 70-400mm and 24-70mm, although the uber-expensive 300/2.8 did not get bumped up.  Camera body prices seem to be unchanged for now, as are the NEX lenses and most “DT” lenses.

This of course is not welcome news for Sony full frame shooters, it almost feels like they’re ‘punishing’ what they consider their least important customers.  Oh well, I like my A580……
