Nice to see them join in the DO/PF. I'm not sure Canon had a problem as such with supply, other than perhaps cost. The 70-300DO wasn't stellar and very expensive, so you have to really want the smaller size/weight compared to conventional designs. Maybe it makes more sense in bigger fast super-tele lenses. Still, would be very interesting to see how Nikon price this lens and if it drives Canon to consider doing more in this area.
Edit: I see pre-orders are around US$2000 compared to $1370 for the conventional equivalent, so not that bad.
