    Canon will be officially announcing the RF 50mm f/1.8 STM and RF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM imminently, but pricing has leaked out ahead of the official announcement.

    The Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM will be $199 USD and the Canon RF 70-200mm f/4L USM will be $1599.

    Correction: I have corrected the pricing of the Canon RF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM from a previous typo.

    4. Excellent pricing here! That 70-200 F/4 is going to sell like hotcakes.

      I'll definitely drop a pre-order on the RF 50mm F/1.8 just for the hell of it at that price. Super nice and compact 50mm for the R5.
    7. The source tweet says $1599 for the 70-200 f/4, not $1299. Typo?

    9. Well, well Canon. Looks like Canon is addressing the complaints about no cheap lenses for the R mount to some degree. Local EF 50/1.8 is AUD189 so about USD120 + US tax.
      RF50mm/1.8 will definitely be cheaper than EF50mm/1.8+adapter and smaller.
      RF70-200mm/4 @USD1299 (plus local tax) will be about the same as the EF version ~AUD2050. This sounds a little optimistic but happy to be wrong. Wouldn't be surprised if the local price is higher... at least to cover the local 5 year warranty
    13. That's a great price on that 50! I'll have to grab one of those. Good price on that 70-200 too, but I think I'm going to hold off and wait for a 15-35 F4L.
      Fortunately the rumor is the 15-35 F/4L is actually a 14-35mm F/4L! Going to be tough for me to decide if I want to replace my 16-35 F4L with that or the 15-35mm F/2.8L.

      The EF 16-35mm f/4L IS is so good they had to do something to entice owners to switch!
    17. CR needs to learn how to slow down and read more carefully.
      Nokishita says $1599 for the 70-200/4View attachment 193774
      Thanks for showing the source with the correct prices!

      Simply copying the numbers could have prevented some disappointment. Well, at least the RF 50 1.8 STM looks really compelling at this price.

      My current 77mm filters can be used on my RF70-200mm, EF24-105 and EF16-35mm/4. CPL/6 stop ND and 10 stop ND are screw in and my grads are 100mm wide on 77mm thread.

      Moving from my EF16-35mm/4 to RF would mean new filters for >77mm thread. That will be expensive for me. 82mm for the RF15-35mm/2.8 and would be larger if it is 14-35mm.
      Unlikely that a 14-35mm lense would accept a front filter thread ie bulbous and need a special setup like the Nikon 14-24mm or EF11-24mm.
      I have my Samyang 14mm/2.8 if I need wider but it is mostly for astrolandscapes ie not using filters
      I'm sure that a new RF wide angle zoom will be great but it would add another AUD1k minimum for the new filters.... Much more if 150mm grads would be needed.
