In some cases M series, even the top dollar glass? You may have to wait several months and longer for the most expensive glass. No shotage of orders. <<< Given they can barely keep up with demand they'd have to be absolutely STUPID to reduce prices. The market in the form of the big auction website is saying the prices for many of the lenses should be even higher. They don't have the production capacity for more supply so the only thing reducing prices would do is reduce profit - and profit is what funds R&D for the next model.
