All full frame pro lenses:


16-35mm f/2.8 IS - Based on the specs this should be even sharper than the existing 16-35mm f/2.8, but much more expensive.

135mm 1.8 IS - This lens would not be especially hard to manufacture and is in bad need of an update.

55-300mm f/2.8-f/4.0 IS - This particular way of making this lens has f/2.8 until 140mm!!, doubles as a 77-420mm f/4.0-f/5.6 with a 1.4 TC - 5 ED elements!!! If it were good it would be very exciting.

50mm 1.2 which isn't soft like the current Canon version:

Yes I know these are all from Nikon Rumors, but I hope Canon is watching them and responds.

These would be profoundly amazing
 
Re: Lesnes I want based on existing patents....

Guess you better get yourself a Nikon body, and spend time on your knees praying for Nikon to release those lenses.

What is the point of this post, anyway? Oh wait, now I remember - you're the guy that Canon screwed over. I guess it's happening again, with Canon not releasing lenses specifically for you. Boo hoo. :'(
