If so, it would be more effective to simply discontinue the 80-400 VR. In addition, not anyone can shell out the big bucks required to purchase the 200-400 VR. And of those who can, probably only a minority would be willing to carry such a heavy lens.

That is the point. The ones who can sell out for the 200-400mm f4 VR will do so, as the 80-400mm VR is inferior. And the ones who can't afford the weight and/or cost of the 200-400mm f4 VR get the 80-400mm VR and tell themselves what a great lens it is (yes, this 80-400mm gets called great very often in forums).



But, I am sure it will be replaced in the not too distant future.
