Wish it were...wouldn't it make sense to implement such a feature in a lens like this, and at this price point?

The only push-pull zoom in Canon's lineup that I know to be weather-sealed is the 28-300mmL.

If a 2nd gen version comes out, I'm sure it will be weathersealed.

I hope there won't be a new one 'cause I just ordered one from B&H...
