Canon to Announce Another “World’s First” at Some Point This Year

[neuroanatomist]

Wild guess: Canon starts with the 18-150 RF-S and 24-240 RF lenses, leaves the optical formula intact but changes the mechanical design to add zoom motors and jacks up the price by at least 50%.

How well do video shooters / content creators like zoom lenses that change aperture as you zoom?

A cheaper way would be an external power zoom adapter, like the one for the RF 24-105/2.8 and 70-200/2.8 Z. The reason that one is the PZ-E2 is because the -E1 was specifically for the EF-S 18-135mm lens.

Everything else has IBIS? What about C50, C70, C400, C80, etc - a 24-70mm f2 would be the perfect cine zoom, but without IS is tough. Hope it has it.

Yep or the R5C which doesn't have IBIS. I would prefer a lens like this with IS.
