What lens are you patiently waiting for?

[davidchang]

35L f/1.4 II

+1 again

 

[dstppy]

8-500mm f/1.2 IS L

Check with NASA . . . I think they already have one . . . of course it's observatory mounted ;D

 

[Heidrun]

EF 12-24 f.2.8/4.0 L is. This is a lens that i don`t think Canon ever will manufacture. But i`m waiting for it anyway.
And my dream wish EF 14-24 f.4.0 L T&S with autofocus

 

[Bob Howland]

Realistically, the 200-400 f/4 / 280-560f/5.6 (Where is it? Is Canon desperately trying to make enough units to supply pro photographers at the London Olympics?)

In my dreams, a 200-500 f/4 or better yet f/2.8-4 with a maximum aperture of f/2.8 from 200mm to 350mm.

 

[DavidGMiles]

Only the 200-400mm f/4 - preferably before my trip to photograph Puffins in June - or certainly before Kenya in September

35L f/1.4 II

+1

An update to the 17-40 without a 1.5x up-charge that seems to be occurring with the latest round of updates and an update of the 50mm 1.4.

 

[TW]

waiting for an update on the 180 macro.

+1

But I got tired of waiting (been waiting for over a year for an upated version with IS), so I popped for the current model last week.

It is awesome, talk of slow autofocus is nonsense. It is very snappy, unless you are trying to go from macro to infinity. Who ever does that? How would you even try to focus on something you couldn't even see through the view finder?

Anywho, I guess we can expect the anouncement for the EF 185 f3.2L IS Macro USM any day now!

 

[darrellrhodesmiller]

an updated 35mm would be nice. the 35mm f2.0 is really an old lens.. the 35mm L lens is great.. but i wish where was some middle ground between a 300.00 lens and a 1400.00 lens in that focal range.

there have been hints of a new 100-400 for years. i'd be interested in that lens too.

D

I really want to see this 200-400mm f/4L with built in extender. Looks like a great lens. Who knows, maybe it will finally be released in the APR announcement

 

[dystorsion]

35mm 1.4 L II!

 

[DJL329]

The EF 50mm f/1.4 II USM -- no IS!

 

[Haydn1971]

Hmmm... EF-S 8-18mm (rectilinear) or EF-S 10-22mm II, EF 20mm f2.0, EF 35mm f1.8, EF 85mm f1.4, EF-S 15-50mm f2 IS, EF-S 45-135mm f2.8 IS, EF 400mm f5.6 IS

 

[Mt Spokane Photography]

I haven't waited, I bought what I needed. I would have been waiting for well over five years to get a new 100-400mmL MK II since the rumors started.

I'm getting old, I don't have 5 or 10 years to wait

 

[CanonLITA]

The EF 50mm f/1.4 II USM -- no IS!

Same here!

 

[Seamus]

Waiting patiently for the 24-70 mii. I'm also interested in the 200-400, but it will probably be too expensive. I'll keep saving and wait and see...

 

[darktiger]

24-105L f/2.8 IS II

 

[Axilrod]

14-24mm f/2.8

 

[gudun74]

100-400mm L f4/5.6 IS II

 

[Quasimodo]

24-105L f/2.8 IS II

I guess that it would not be a II if it gets 2.8 But I would love for such a lens like everyone else, and preferably with internal zoom, so that it does not extend. The problem is as I see it that such a lens would first of all extremely expensive, and second and more importantly; why on earth would Canon ever release such a lens? It would kill many other lenses...
