That EF 24-70 f/2.8 II is a pretty spectacular lens in its own right. Any upgrade would be, in my mind, akin to going from an A- to an A...

@Maximilian the RF100-400mm is performing very well with the 2xTC here. I haven't used it myself because it's not nearly as good as the...

The question is also, will Canon come with an answer to the Sony 50-150mm F2?

The point of the article, which you seem to have missed, is the possibility that both can be done simultaneously, in a 24-70/2 VCM...

Been hoping for this!

I think they would rather benefit from decreasing the weight instead of offering another 1.4 kg boat anchor with more zoom range.

Had this self same conversation with a reputable optical engineer at a camera / lens rental company yesterday. His view was the RF...

Too good to be true!
This is a lens I will order as soon as it is officially announced.
But it needs a "little" companion, the TS-E...

I'd buy a 24-70/2 in a heartbeat, especially if it comes in close to the size/weight of the 24-70/2.8.
No love for the RF 24-50mm...

I was hoping for an announcement like this....I still have my EF 24-70 2.8ii, wouldn't mind upgrading.

I just took a look at the macros I shot with the RF 100mm f/2,8 last Sunday.
40% at f/2,8...
AlanF replied to the thread Dragonflies and Damselflies.
That's nothing to do with the aperture, it's the relative light intensity and reflectivity in the different regions. It would be the...

Sony has knocked a huge amount of weight off the 300/2.8. Their prime weighs 1 kg/ 35 oz less than the Canon zoom coming it at 1.74 kg...

PS I agree that new lenses have changed the landscape somewhat. The RF 100-400 is a great near-macro alternative for insects, although...

scyrene replied to the thread New Big White Lenses from Canon are Coming in Late Q4 and Possibly a 500mm Prime.
Huh? Are you suggesting people would never use the macro wide open? I use the rather similar Sigma 180 macro and almost always shoot at...

Yes, the center of mass being off to the side with the Wimberley MH-100 does create an extra balancing issue. The ProMediaGear tomahawk...

What's the fuzz with built in TCs?
Let's go into details:
The EF200-400 with the 1.4 engaged offered 280-560 5.6 @ infinity (you never...

Technically, you’re correct – one is a prime and the other is a zoom, and those are different classes of lenses. But optically, the RF...

too dark in the details for me, most in penultimate photo...the head is almost invisible

Yes I also had one its a shame they discontinued it is now a none serviceable and the 100-300 is really pricey
AlanF replied to the thread Dragonflies and Damselflies.
What problem?
AlanF replied to the thread New Big White Lenses from Canon are Coming in Late Q4 and Possibly a 500mm Prime.
I had the EF 300mm f2.8 II. It is one hell of a lens. And, the RF 100-300mm F2.8 is pretty much in the same class. If it was lighter and...

its not in the same Class as the 300 F2.8 it was one hell of a lens
neuroanatomist replied to the thread New Big White Lenses from Canon are Coming in Late Q4 and Possibly a 500mm Prime.
Why the switch? My guess would be to address the issue of the MH-100 putting the center of mass to the side instead of over the monopod...

They replaced it with a zoom.
