In Europe the Sony 24-70mm has an outrageous price!

Preorders:
Sony 20-70mm at BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama, FotoKoch, Fotoerhardt, Calumet, WexUK.

The Sony 20-70mm is surely a great lens. In the USA the price is actually very ok, with $1099. But in Europe Sony really added a hefty price tag! At 1599 Euro it’s really overpriced as a standard f/4.0 zoom (although it is a special and good one).
