We’re told that beyond new f/2.8 RF zoom lenses, that Canon is working on two new L prime lenses, an RF 24mm f/1.2L USM and an RF 85mm f/1.2L for release in late 2019 or early 2020.

The Canon EOS R system launched with two primes, the RF 35mm f/1.8 IS STM Macro and the RF 50mm f/1.2L USM.

We find the RF 24mm f/1.2L an interesting choice for the lineup, especially with the speed of the lens. We wonder if a fast 35mm f/1.2L would be more popular. The 85mm f/1.2L for the RF mount would be a no-brainer.

More to come…
