Take a look at the Canon 24/1.4L to get a feeling for how big the new 28 will be (assuming it actually exists). :( I bet the new 28/1.4 uses an injection molded aspherical element and not a precision ground one like the original did. :( AF-S will also make that lens a *lot* bigger and heavier than the original 28/1.4.
