At CR1 level, you can say or think anything!

Whatever it is, I predict they'll call it the Isaac Newton Super Chief Interstellar Sky Assembler.

 

[Dylan777]

12-24mm f/2.8L IS.

Ok, I jest...I'm a geek, after all.

YEAP...12-24mm f2.8 IS + 85L f1.2 IS III(AF speed as fast as 70-200) ;D

Count me in for both

 

[infared]

It has to be a lens to compete with the 12-24mm Nikkor....it's tme.

I was thinking Luxury Art Dynamic Image Digital Aperture

 

[siegsAR]

17-40mm II... What do you know, big and wide... ;D

 

[sanj]

Updated 800 pls

 

[scottkinfw]

I'm ready for a great new lens. I hope I don't have to sell the house to get it though.

A new-and-improved 100-400?

This lens is loooong overdue and would likely sell like hotcakes, as did the current version. I was recently looking at Nikon and they have a new improved version of their 80-400 and the reviews are off-the-charts positive. The improved Canon would need zoom ring instead of push pull and preferably start at 80mm instead of 100mm to match Sigma and Nikon.

 

[adhocphotographer]

14-24 f/2.8, 16-50 f/4 IS, 400 f/5.6 IS or 100-400 replacement....

Any (or all) of those would be welcome in my eyes.

 

[Jim Saunders]

A new wide, please; After that there'll be lots of 16-35s for sale and I can get one without breaking the bank.

...Who am I kidding, I'm no good at not buying the latest-and-greatest.

A big lens announcement would be a 1200F5.6 lens...... But I'll settle for an updated 400F5.6, it would be a lot easier to carry.

For such a 'big 'ens' I'd expect the announcement to be 'small', aimed mostly at professionals that might actually use this niche product.

If it is a significant lens, I'd think it is something coveted by many photographers, such as the 100-400 shown at the start of this thread, or maybe a new 50L. Somehow I think a 35L is not significant enough.

So based on the original info I'd say if anything is anounced, it's an 'L' telezoom, normal prime or quite possibly a WA zoom with a new range.

12-24mm f2.8L would be the important add-on to their lineup. Updates for the 35 f1.4L, 50 f1.2L and 85 f1.2L would be most welcome and within their zoom portfolio, I would love to see a new version of the 100-400.

 

[Woody]

16-50 f/4 IS???

I'll buy this in a heartbeat. Already set aside funds for it... just waiting...

 

[Chosenbydestiny]

Whatever does come out.... It's gonna be expensive.

 

[azphotographe]

May be a new version of the canon 35 or 135L. They are of the oldest lens.

 

[e-d0uble]

50mm f/.95!
