1. First!
   
   I'd buy it... if it doesn't cost what I think it's going to cost.

3. Holy shit... how heavy will this be?!
   2-3kg?! And a price of 3-5k€!?
   You don’t need 1,4f for Astro... better less coma etc.
   hopefully with filter rear mount! (or body clip in filters)

5. I can't even imagine what that will cost. This transition to RF is getting more expensive for me by the CR post.

7. I think a prime lens would be more "ultimate"

8. I’m still waiting for a cheaper wide angle RF lens, bring us the 16-35mm f/4! =)

9. Yes please! As I shoot a lot of northern lights, a fast shutter is critical to get the fine details in the aurora.

    My first though twas $2500USD. But it could be a lot more. I think the EF Sigma 14mm ART lens is $1700 still. It'll look like a steal with the filter adapter and a set of drop in filters for less than the cost of the zoom.

11. I want this! Really want it!
    Today I'm using 20mm/1.4 and 14mm/1.8 and one lens that can do both.. aswell as faster at 14mm would be awesome for astro and Northern lights-shooting! :D

12. Right, as if RF 28-70 F2 is not breaking enough ground.

13. I really want this lens. I am guessing that it will be at least $3,500usd since the RF 15-35 f2.8L is about $2,200usd now.
    I love how Canon is really busy innovating and bringing us great products! Unreal.

14. Sign me up, no doubt. I’d imagine this will be more than the 28-70, I’d guess $3499.

    How about f/1.4 and low coma characteristics?

    Over $3,000 US and less than $90,000 US [CR3].

    Who doesn’t need f/1.4 for Astro? You? Personally, I found f/2.8 to be too slow. I’ll decide what I need/want all on my own. Thanks.

    Less coma? My wife will put me in a coma if she sees my buying that thing.
