Canon Working on New Lens Technology

[Talys]

I believe that it will ALWAYS focus perfectly on what you are thinking of.

Fuji and Kodak already sold that as the reason to buy these

I bet it is a sharp wide open 50mm f/1.2-1.4 with fast, precise and reliable AF. Because this is something Canon has never done before.

We can only hope!

Any new lens will definitely include neutrino technology!

The article and the subsequent translation told me nothing. I think the same could be said for every camera/lens company.

They have been filling their lenses with neutrinos for years! But that did not provoke many reactions…

It's a new Schroedinger lens - the lens aperture has a quantum lock and as long as that is in place the photograph is the world's best photograph ever....or the worst.






Or is it one that only takes pictures of cats in a box......hmmmm...

Could this becoming reality for the mass market? A liquid lens? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZGcKbf-8Yc

Wouldn't be surprised if Canon is the first in the global market with such a technology - or at least the first one who does it right. I'm just curious, because there's a patent regarding this: http://www.freepatentsonline.com/WO2012049989A1.html

Any thoughts on that?

We wasted a lot of money trying to develop a liquid lens the idea has been around for ages but theory is one thing and practise another!

Kinda hard to get charged up by neutrinos

Don't cannons beat swords??

But seriously, may be it will be able to take a photograph of Time And Relative Dimensions In Space 8)

LOL, PLEASE do yourself a favor and take the time to read through the comments, some are gut busting funny.....
Looks like the questions have also started bringing in some good fun too....

Oh, I totally get it, but I'm just reading it now.
You guys know my kind of humour: subtle enough to blow past plenty...

Surely it didn't get much of a bark
