Rumors: Canon EF 14-24mm f/2.8L coming in late 2013

1424patent

This Canon’s new ultrawide zoom lens has rumored for a long time. Today CR told us that  EF 14-24mm f/2.8L lens is coming in late 2013. A couple of patents that have referenced this optical formula are out there, which tells us it’s something that is on the minds of the R&D team at Canon.

I was told today that the lens is in the pipeline and will be coming in 2013 if there are no more delays with lens production. I was told to expect availability to be in late 2013, but the announcement date was unknown at this time. It makes perfect sense that this sort of lens would be announced with the imminent large megapixel camera that Canon will unveil in 2013.

Rumors: Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 IS coming in 2013

Recent rumors shows that a new 50mm f/1.4 IS lens is coming in 2013. The old EF 50mm f/1.4 was release in 1993, and recently got a price drop to $299. It sounds like a 1.4 IS variant is going to be announced in 2013. There also rumors an f/1.8 IS version existing. Don’t expect such a lens to be much less than the $800 that the EF 24 f/2.8 IS, EF 28 f/2.8 IS and EF 35 f/2 IS all approximately cost.
