Based on the carping on the DP review Minolta forum I kind of doubt it.

I wonder how much of that is bad importers.
I've bought 4 new lenses in the past year or so, the only one that took time to
deliver was the 15mm (which took a couple of months). The others were delivered
in a week to 10 days from Pentax Canada to Don's Photo. OTOH, the focusing
screens for the istD took forever to arrive.
I don't know, a lot of Fast/Long FA lenses seem to have become unavailable
anywhere. So there are now hugh holes in the line-up, I'll bet top end Minolta
lenses are easier to buy.
