This must be a fake patent. I refuse to believe Canon will ever make a 50mm F1.4 :D The RF 24-70mm f/4 could be nice if it had the macro capability of the EF version, but Sony have set the bar higher with their 20-70 f/4

The 90mm would be nice. But after seeing the new Panasonic 100mm macro, it should not be heavier (300g).

I would like to see some lenses that already exist for other systems - 20-70mm (Sony), lightweight 100mm 1:1 macro (Panasonic), 50mm f/1.4 (Sony).

15-45 is better than 18-45, but for me the question is, are there going to be some good RF-s lenses? Something like EF-s 60mm macro or EF-s 15-85 (maybe lighter)? Now it's just a typical Canon galore of 18-whatever f/too-high. It's a pity since EOS R7 is a nice body.

I guess you prefer constant aperture to zoom without changing it. I think today's variable aperture lenses allow that. The only exception is when it's not physically possible - when you choose the lowest aperture on wide end and zoom in. So I think a f/2.8-f/4 lens is better than a constant f/4...

It looks like a result of a contest of 7 Canon engineers designing a 30cm long lens :D But the 45-130 f/2.2 could be interesting for all kinds of portraits.

If they launch a new platform with 18-45 and 18-150, it's probably not going to be interesting anytime soon. I'm afraid they will continue with 18-200 and 18-300 :confused:

I guess it's the SAuron control ring - when you turn it right, you become invisible (for better macro), but you should never turn it left ... ;)

I would welcome a possibility to put a camera to sleep on a button press. It's very easy to keep the camera awake and drain its battery, if your hand gets close to the viewfinder on/off sensor. The on/off switch is not practical, since you cannot wake the camera up just by pressing the shutter...

I hope the 50mm will be a 1:2 macro lens.

I was hoping for the rumored (or appearing in patents) 18-45 non-L lens.

I would want a 1:1 macro lens, something around 90mm f2.8 or f4, so it's smaller and lighter than the EF 100mm macro.

I was hoping for a higher end EOS-M camera, but I think it will not come - for pricing reasons. It would probably cost around $1500 witch is already a fullframe territory. It would also require better lenses. Canon prioritizes RF mount, so I think it makes more sense to spend that money on an RF...

If there is a wireless transmitter, does it mean that at least one of R5/R6 will not have a wifi built-in? It doesn't sound good.

I think it's a very nice lens for 200€ in a kit. Especially for cases when you want something lightweight or when there is a risk of the lens getting damaged (sand and such).

"Build quality not as good as the EOS R5" I hope it has a reasonable weather sealing. That's my biggest gripe about the RP - its battery door is a joke.

If the R6 has a 20MPx sensor, it will be able to use very high ISOs, so high f/11 should not be a problem. Or maybe Canon just want to make the f/7.1 lenses more attractive - suddenly, they seem to be quite fast ;)

RF 20-85 3.5-5.6 0.7 macro Perfect lens for nature photography and probably quite possible to implement.

I think it will be called RIP when discontinued ;)

I think it's quite logical move - they will release 5Dmk4 and it will be easy to buy a 5Dmk3 for a good price. But Canon wants people to buy new cameras, not used ones. So they must make 6Dmk2 comparable with the current 5Dmk3. In the same was as the current 6D is comparable with 5Dmk2.
