I doubt any 200/2 (or faster) lens ever sold in huge quantities, anywhere.

Well yes, huge is probably overstated, but at that price point and with a weight of 1.6 kg, it will change radically the perception of that type of lenses.

It's similar to a 70-200mm f2.8 that pretty much every serious shooter owns.
