    Just saying that Canon (and all the other manufacturers) will tell us whatever is they think will keep us buying their gear. I believe...

    And bees have no sex-linked chromosomes at all. Yet we teach kids about ‘the birds and the bees’. Lol.

    @Celts88, meet the Internet. The Internet, meet @Celts88. It’s clear that you two are previously unacquainted. ;)

    It seems that the RF 85/1.4L VCM is also VCM-only, without a Nano USM motor. Several online reviews state that it has both, but I can’t...

    Sometimes I wonder if you aren't paid by Canon to post here.

    USM is a vibrating drive that rotates a glass group, whereas VCM pushes/pulls using the magnetic force. The glass groups can probably be...

    I have the Laowa 35mm TS for my X2D II. It is a good lens in terms of IQ, but it is also quite a bit heavier than the 2 TS-E lenses I...

    Sure it does. Canon can say they're not technically lying so no suing them (as if one would). But the bottom line does not change...

    I really like your series. Well done, Isv.
  • neuroanatomist
    Lol, yeah Canon has a team of PR flaks working around the clock to deflect, defer and diffuse the massive public outcry over this huge...

    In the EF mount, Canon made three 28mm lenses over a 30 year period. None of them were L. So far, in the 8 years of the RF mount, Canon...

    Financial issues would be de facto blocking, but it is not the same as Canon not allowing third-party FF lenses under any circumstances.

    I think the market for TS-E lenses is rather small and the EF TS-E lenses work "well enough" for those people who already own them.
  • E
    That is a reasonable conclusion, but another one is that Canon set the price too high just to make enough money for themselves to sense...

    Canon's comment is egregious reputation management, Canon trying to blame Sigma and Tamron and deflect resentment from themselves.

    Canon Russia publicly stated that there was more chance of a new model than not. That logically tells us they were considering to NOT...

    Their genetics is really interesting. You are right, the US Green Teal mitochondrial DNA differs from the European Common Teal by a...

    Canon has recently thrown everything into the 14/1.4 to the extent that it is an expensive but wonderful lens. I fear that they may do...

    Eric84 replied to the thread Is Ring-Type USM on the Way Out?.
    Maybe a dumb question, but would it be impossible for Canon to take the RF 50mm F1.2L (or the 85mm) USM and "just" replace the...
