Three New Tilt-Shift Lenses on the Way [CR2]

I've owned Canon 50mm EF lenses from 4 countries, Japan, Taiwan, Malaysia, and The Philippines. So I did a check to see where Canon currently makes lenses. We know that the "L" lenses are made in Japan, and many EF-s lenses are made in Taiwan. It turns out that Malaysia is making EF lenses, along with lens components.

I do not see "M" lenses listed, and I do not have any, so I do not know where they are currently made.

I suppose its feasible that a EF Tilt-S____ ;) lens could be made in Malaysia, a non L would be a first.

The Japanese site codes listed on the lens mounts for lenses are out there on the internet, but I've not seen a convenient lens-by-lens country/countries of manufacture list. If anyone knows of one, I'd love to see it.

I have the 90 and have a blast with it when I pull it. I will put the extension tubes on it and align the dof and get some interesting shots.

Would love something with a little better engineered controls, etc.

I had a 90 and used 1.4 TC on it for Macro work. It was fun

Let's see, in my ideal world of photographic fantasy, I'd like to see some stm af on the end barrel (especially on the 45), and some kind of electronic auto exposure compensation to correct for movements and a red ring and dual card slots (too far?)

Back to morning coffee.

Just not a lot going on in Canon's world. An industry shakeup would be an EF 600mm F4 DO with an integrated 1.4x tele. Wake up sleeping giant!
The shake up is without a tc. Smaller in length than 500mm f/4 IS II and as heavy (according to older posts).

Canon makes two EF-S and an EF-M macro lenses, maybe there's a crop TS-E lens as well, say 12mm?

I'd buy it. Even if I buy a 6D2, I'll still use my Rebel for some things. An affordable TS lens would be about the only reason I'd have for buying another EF-S lens.

If that doesn't happen, I think I'll plan out a staycation and rent a TS lens for a week, possibly a 24mm, to use with the 6D II.

You can use third party brands TS offering, if you seek for a more affordable TS lens. Samyang for example...

My understanding is people want a crop tilt shift for the same reason they want a crop macro - so they could save on both the lens and the camera.
