Patent: CN-E 20-100 T2.8 & CN-E 20-120 T2.8-T3.5

Here we have another patent for more cine lens optical formulas. This time for two lenses, a CN-E 20-100 T2.8 and a CN-E 20-120 T2.8-T3.5.

I'm starting to think we're going to see some new cinema lenses this fall once the EOS C300 Mark II begins shipping.
