were you waiting for the 10-1000 F1.0 lens by any chance?
If it doesn’t have IS and dual card slots, count me out.

Usability.
Given that the 18-80 f/2.8 already exists w/speed boosters, what's mind boggling is that Canon didn't just take that internally and produce a knockout lens.
Instead we are getting slow f/7.1 zooms and enormous expensive f/2's. Both have limited usability. That doesn't look like innovation to me.
these are APS-C lenses, not full frame lenses.Usability.
Sigma nailed it with an 18-35 and 50-100 f/1.8 lenses. Extremely useful focal lengths for a wide variety of applications.
Truly. Although I'd prefer something just a bit longer like my cherished 100/2 EF USM. Adding 4 stops of IS is a dream come true.I’d really love to have a small but excellent quality 85 1.8 IS!
That would truly be delightful. The 35mm is a stellar performer at a great price plus having IS makes it such a useful lens for my shooting.50 and 85 with is and stm motors on a budget would be top selling!!! I imagine 200-400$ each. I hope it comes true! Canon is rocking atm...!!! 35mm is already a macro lens and 50mm is also a macro lens. What else to ask really? Holy $hit...
Seems a little boring, given that Canon promised new and inventive lenses along with the R system.
The difference between f/2.8 and f/2 at 135mm isn't massive, and so that lens seems a little fringe.
Why no 17-55mm f/2.8? Why no telephoto lenses faster than f/7.1? Why no L primes smaller than their EF counterparts?
Did we really need a junky 24-105?
Scarcely seems boring as the 70-135 f2 is not in anyone else’s line up. As for f2 not being much different then you would not be impressed by the 28-70f2 which in my experience was dramatically better than the 24-70 f2.8.Seems a little boring, given that Canon promised new and inventive lenses along with the R system.

Missing:
70-300 4-5.6 STM (not interesting for me)
17-35 4.5-5.6 STM or something similar
I’m not sure of that at all given the designs the R mount allows. Also, these focal lengths are begging for IS.
I’m a 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM owner, and I love it. It’s a fantastic budget travel lens, and it compliments the current 24-105mm f/4L really well in a travel kit. I am upgrading to the RF 24-105 f/4L, and would love an RF version of the 70-300. Depending on the cost and size though, the Canon RF 100-500mm f/4.5-7.1L IS USM sounds really intriguing for my needs. If it’s still around f/5.6 at 300mm, and it’s $1,000 or less, I’ll be REALLY intrigued.
Hopefully the missing MACRO designation is some typo - that would be the hammer lens for me combined with the RF 35 MACRO - or we have to wait another year for a RF f/2.0 100 IS Macro ?I’d really love to have a small but excellent quality 85 1.8 IS!
