Slobodan,
I am not sure about that.  Comments by the techy people at PMA indicated
that they were shooting for a line of F4 lenses that were absolutely
superb.  With the Canon ISO advantage, The F4 lenses will be smaller, and
possibly better image cutters as it is far easier to control aberrations
with a smaller stop.  But a full frame 12-24 F4 lens would have some strong
appeal.
