Canon News has uncovered a patent for a lens that will surely be coming in the future from Canon. I have reported that a Canon RF 14-35mm f/4L IS USM was on the way. Perhaps the “14mm” was a type and it will in fact be 15mm at the wide end.
This patent also includes an optical formula that has a wide end of 16mm.
I suspect we're going to see this lens or something very similar announced in 2021.

2. I really thought they would give the F4L wide zoom some more reach.
3. bet this will be another supercompact wonder
And an ND filter stack on the C70!
Side note, does anyone know why the 15-35 2.8 is backordered everywhere, and maybe when they might be back in stock?
I love the size on the EF version.
It is good though that Canon brings slower versions of its very expensive lenses with f/2.8. With a powerful IBIS you do not need much light and I usually chose an aperture just below the diffraction limit of the camera to get as much depth of field as possible. That's f/11 at my 18 megapixel camera. So f/2.8 for me is just something that makes a lens twice as heavy and twice as expensive and I only need it for low light hand held shots.
