Chris Frost has posted a review of that lens and it appears as if Canon made some interesting compromises in order to allow it to hit the price, weight and size point they amed for. Namely, at the wide end, it doesn't really cover the whole frame. That shocked me, to be honest. Is it something they have done before, maybe on an EF-M lens? Or is this a first?
I'm not really interested in the lens, even if I would get a R camera in the future. But it seems odd to me that are doing this. Seems like a cheap trick a third party manufacturer would pull. Seems like we could also see some really low cost RF lenses if this design mentality is carried over to less extreme designs, like a pancake lens.
