<p><strong>Something in an L?

</strong>We’re told that there are tentative plans for a lens announcement sometime in late September and it would be a “big deal”.</p>
<p>No mention of what lens, and Canon doesn’t hold press events just for lenses.</p>
<p>We’re trying to find out more, as this came from a first time source. I expect the usual suspects will be talked about.</p>

If Canon is going to announce large MP bodies, it's time to start setting them up with lenses. The 14-24mm f/2.8L would be such a lens. Maybe a larger aperture 28-300? A wide angle larger aperture prime like a 14mm f/2, f/1.8, or f/1.4 would fit the bill as well.

A new type of IS perhaps? It has to be something different and not just an update to an existing lens like the 100-400L. An update in itself isn't big news. There's gotta be something but we have been down this road before and it only led to dissapointment ...
