>>2590756>True that Pentax doesn't has as much selection but with Canikon it's about having 5 or 6 variants for the same focal length, all of them taking up lots of manufacturing space and resources making everything more expensiveSome Pentax lenses compared to their rough Canon equivalents:

Tell me again how Canon's decision to have a full lineup of full-frame lenses makes everything more expensive?
