    I'd love a fast ultra wide zoom - like a 12-24 f/2. That would be excellent for a lot of my work when in the back country and keep me...

    I hope the second ‘world’s first’ is a photo-oriented lens, 70-180/2 or better yet a 600/4 with some innovative TC built in. But I...

    I'd love to see a matched set of 24-70 f/2 and 70-180 f/2. Why stop at 180? Because it would still be compatible with 95 mm filters...

    I am not interested in those lists, I am just interested in the lens in my hands. These days street work with the RF45 1.2 on the R5...

    Your list is 'interesting', here are some questions: a. Sony has a global shutter camera - so what? the IQ is compromised. b. Sony has...

    You've convincingly demonstrated it's not the camera, but the photographer! :)

    Why is it so hard for you to just accept that some randos on the internet understand the camera market and what it wants much better...

    Canon are getting fairly smashed by Sony on several fronts, so they really need to compete. They have some better performing prime...

    There's at least one other possibility, that they believe they can sell more lenses like this, or to put it another way, their actual...

    Digital correction is a deal breaker, and why I have kept away from the VCM lenses except to solve specific problems (the 35 VCM was a...

    My understanding of a "trinity" was three lenses that share the same aperture and quality built, but differ in focal length in a way...

    You sometimes don't know what you have shot! A Marsh Harrier was flying far to far away, but I pointed the RF 200-800mm anyway. A tiny...

    Well, in this case, the "holy trio" will be 24-70, 70-200, 200-800... and maybe incliude 50/85 for portraits and low light even though...

    I agree, at least after (required) correction of the distortion at the wide end.
  • wsmith96
    I'd like to see how much weight they can squeeze out of a lens like this. I'm sure it will be optically awesome.
  • fox40phil
