    While I 100% agree with what you are saying, what concerns me is that it is reasonable to assume the next generation of camera bodies...

    Oh, well ok then. A niche market. Right, because not making a couple of mid-range lenses for a niche market for which Canon already...

    Assuming the R3 II ever comes into being, it will be a high-end camera at least as expansive as the R5 II, so Canon will not care one...
  • Dr_Flash
    totally with you on that, hearing it even for 25 years ;).I would never switch overall. But, I'm not talking whole camera market, I just...

    All fair points, and choice is good. The EF 11-24/4 uses the whole sensor, and the RF 10-20/4 needs correction to fill the corners...

    Yeah, everyone was deserting Canon for Nikon. Then Sony. Now, apparently, Nikon again. Been hearing it for 15 years. Meanwhile, Canon...

    :LOL: it definitely changed a lot, I wonder if this is Canon strategy or just Sony and Nikon prioritize this niche more? Let's see and...

    Yes, a poor choice of word on my account. Interpolation is ‘creating’, but it’s creating directly around the same data that has already...

    And I thought Canon had already lost every single wildlife photographer, you must be the last survivor! :)

    Concerning "New Higher-End RF-S Lenses", I wonder if Canon might not let Sigma do that for them. but then I don't know how much Sigma is...

    A tale as old as time. For Nikon's sake, I hope you're right! They need the custom.
  • Dr_Flash
    :ROFLMAO: I'm sure Canon can differentiate between a threat and a customer voice. Spending my money with other companies isn't a threat...

    RF 24-70 2.8 LZ (II) and RF 300-600 5.6 L?? Damnnn!! That's all I dream for!!

    Maybe interested in the 300-600 mm f5.6, but I already have the 100-300 mm f2.8 which is more flexible with 1.4x and 2x TCs...

    I am kind of going to repeat what I already wrote recently about RF-S lenses. Last year there was a rumor that we are going to get two...

    Sony will soon have a complete trinity of f2 zooms (16-28, 28-70, 50-150) while Canon ist stuck with a rather heavy 28-70/2 alone. They...

    WarrenJ replied to the thread What ever happened to DO lenses?.
    I played around with the 800mm DO for a bit. It's fun, but I just had no practical use for it. If all you needed was 600 or 800mm...

    It's not going anywhere and, for what most people are paid to photograph professionally, it doesn't matter at all unless you don't like...

    Capturing photos. Isn't that what the sensor is all about? 😏 I agree. I just paid for them, so I want them used. I mean, it's not...

    Be sure to stamp your foot a little bit, it will make the threat more effective and ensure that Canon responds to your demand in a...

    Utilized for what? Even if you routinely make large prints (bigger than 16x24") from your images, it probably won't make a meaningful...
  • Dr_Flash
    Canon you are on the clock until early summer... A real RF 400mm 2.8 replacement with build in TC is long overdue and I'm really loosing...
  • Dr_Flash
    I guess replacement is not another lens...
  • neuroanatomist
    How do you define 'created'? As @screenshooter correctly states, distortion correction involves interpolation and that's still...
  • P-visie
    If Canon brings out a RF 600mm f4 + 1.4x lens, that would leave only a long RF macro lens on my RF lens wishlist.
