Canon Will Continue to Expand the RF Lens Lineup at 6 to 8 Lenses a Year

I somewhat agree. However, judging from Sigma's lens mount conversion service, the additional effort and cost to port their existing FF lenses to Canon RF is pretty trivial. As I recall, they quoted me about $250 per lens to convert two lenses from EF-M to RF and that included removing old parts and putting in new replacement parts. How much more could it cost to make all their existing FF lens in RF mount also? I don't know exactly why Sigma doesn't do it but Canon saying/implying that it's all Sigma's and Tamron's fault just seems like manipulative BS. Craig may be right that Sigma doesn't have the factory capacity now but I think Sigma would somehow make it work even if it means adding onto their factory and hiring more people.Sigma and co. are focusing on APS-C because there is a huge gap in the market.
