Canon Inc. has filed a patent application for more optical formulas of fast RF prime lenses, this time an RF 28mm f/1.4L USM and an RF 35mm f/1.4L USM.

There have been many patents in the past for these optical formulas, but our roadmap shows an RF 35mm f/1.2L USM and I haven't yet been told that an RF 28mm f/1.4L USM was on the way.
