I believed the Oberkochen-based production of the 15 and 85 ZM lenses is 
delayed? 

I agree paying such a higher price for one click and a third more speed and 
so much more size and weight does not make senses for many. Personally I am 
very satisfied with the 15 Heliar though it's vignetting. But I don't mind 
about that as it belongs to superwide shots (at least for me). And the 
de-vignetting feature in the Epson RAW converter is sometimes doing quite a 
good job.
