<p><strong>Tilt-Shift lenses

</strong>Replacements to for the TS-E 45 and TS-90 are coming in 2014 we’re told. They may be announced in 2013, but definitely won’t be shipping before the years end.</p>
<p>At least two more EF lenses will be announced in 2013 and should ship in limited quantities before the year is out. We weren’t privy to which lenses would be coming at this time. I would expect at least one prime and one zoom.</p>
<p>More to come…</p>

Kewl...

The replacements for the TS-E 45mm and 90mm have been rumored for a while, I assume they'll get on-the-fly changing of the relative orientation of T and S, red rings, and a hefty price increase.

One prime and one zoom? Maybe the zoom will be a UWA (14-24/2.8)? Perhaps a 50mm f/2 IS?

 

[Samir]

I suspect it will be a 35 1.4 II or 35 1.2, I know they have been working on the Cinema line 35mm but they had gaffer tape on the T stop number at one of the last shows in a video. Why would they do that if they weren't hiding maybe a possible T1.3 to match their 50 T1.3, 85 T1.3. I think it will trickle down to the Stills line.

 

[Loswr]

I suspect it will be a 35 1.4 II or 35 1.2

I really hope so - an L lens with weather sealing. I'd likely preorder one of those...

 

[hmmm]

Could the zoom be the 100-400 mkII at last?

NR has a rumor for a new 300 f4 from Nikon. The 300 f4L still has first-generation IS and could use a mkII.

My guess for the prime is a 50 mm 1.4 IS as part of their mid-level prime refresh.

.
I'm suspicioning a 35mm.

I don't believe Canon dances much to the tune of competitors -- BUT, I suspect the Sigma 35mm is taking a pound of flesh Canon doesn't want to be giving up.

 

[schmidtfilme]

I heard no good about the 50's , maybe we get a replacement.

 

[retina]

35mm f/1.2 L would absolutely rock, so would 135mm f/1.8 L IS
for the zoom, i also vote for the long-awaited 14-24 but the 100-400 replacement is also very likely indeed.

 

[pedro]

as the rumor mill was very active these past month: a WA lens? 12-24/14-24?

 

[Jay Khaos]

New tilt shifts!! yess

 

[retina]

lol ;D

 

[dadgummit]

Please include a 50mm f1.4 or a 50mm f2 IS!!

 

[hmmm]

Previous rumor suggests that the zoom may be the 16-50:

http://www.canonrumors.com/forum/index.php?topic=16.0
... this rumor suggested a 24-70 with IS. That was launched earlier this year - 24-70/f4 IS USM. One of two lenses from that rumor has now been delivered, increasing the odds that the other half of the rumor is correct.

http://www.canonrumors.com/tag/ef-16-50-f4l-is/

yes-- good call. I'm looking forward to this lens if it is affordable.

So it looks like a 16-50 f4L IS and a 50 1.4 IS.

 

[Canon1]

I'm hopeful for the 100-400. I love mine, but wish the AF was a lot faster and an extra stop or 2 IS would be super. I'd be the first in line. 8)

 

[drjlo]

Here's hoping (against odds) that Crack-smoking Canon exec's don't put the pedal to the metal with pricing :'(

 

[fegari]

A 14-24 and a 100-400 with the same level of quality of the recent mark II zooms and even the Nikon people will start jumping ship!

IMHO Canon would lock the top spot in glass quality for all the focals. I would prefer primes but those zooms may make more sense commercially. Maybe a 35 1.4 to counter Sigma as well

 

[asposium]

Given I've just bought an 85L mark 2 I'd expect a 85L mark 3 IS

now that would be nice.

 

[RGF]

Lots of primes could use refreshing (anything from 400 F4 or F5.6 to 180 macro down to 85/135 or even 24 or new 20?)

Zoom, as others point out, could be updated 100-400 or 14-24, unless it is an EF-S lens.

 

[Daniel Flather]

There was talk about a TS macro a while back. A new 45TSE might force me to buy.

 

[KAS]

Pretty sure the prime is going to be the 35L II. Zoom will likely be the 12/14-24 or less likely a 100-400.

Definitely excited about the new Tilt-shift lenses. Even the current ones are pretty handy for macro work.
