Canon Says The EOS R3 Is “expected to take a lot of time”, Release On 27 November?

Canon Eos R3 Review Canon Cameras Eos R1
View Post

Canon released a statement where they apologies for the upcoming delay in shipping the Canon EOS R3. And the say it will start sales on November 27, 2021.

Sounds conflicting, isn’t it? From the machine translated text below: “the camera body EOS R3 and RF lens RF14-35mm F4 L IS USM announced this year are expected to take a lot of time“. In our interpretation that means that not all EOS R3 order can be fulfilled in the expected time. Sales of the EOS R3 will start on November 27, 2021, according to asobinet.com. Guess it’s first in, first out, with a lot of orders on backorder.

Sigma Might Soon Release RF Mount Lenses (maybe up to 5 in 2022)

Sigma Canon Eos R Art Prime Rf Mount
View Post

A new RF mount rumor and I won’t hesitate to classify it under “good news”. Sigma will eventually address the RF mount.

Latest rumor has it Sigma might dedicate its resources to the design and production of RF mount lenses. Maybe already in 2022. Sigma in then past said that there is not enough demand for RF mount lenses for them to invest into it. In June 2021, Mr. Kazuto Yamaki (Sigma CEO) said that the RF mount is internally discussed and researched. To most of us this sounded like “we are getting into it”. So it doesn’t wonder that much that now Sigma is rumored to release RF mount lenses soon. However, be aware that “Sigma is going to release RF lenses soon”-rumors go back to 2019 (see here too). This time it might be reliable, though.

The source suggests that Sigma might release up to five RF mount lenses in 2022. I can only hope it will happen. Sigma lenses are exceptional performers for the money, I myself love the Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 and wouldn’t want to miss it. But there are so many more awesome Sigma lenses for Canon cameras.

Stay tuned.

New Unreleased Canon Lenses Show Up For Certification (but what are they?)

Canon Lenses
View Post

Two new and yet unreleased Canon lenses have been spotted at a certification authority. We wonder what lenses are coming.

Spotted by Nokishita, the two lenses with SKUs 4858C005 and 5564C005 (image on top) are mentioned along with the recently released RF 5.2mm f/2.8L Dual Fisheye lens. We think these are two more RF mount lenses but are not sure what lenses. One might be an entry level lens. For all we know the two lenses might well be the RF 18-45mm f / 4-5.6 IS STM and “RF 24mm f/1.8 IS STM Macro, both should be relatively affordable lenses.

An overview about rumored upcoming lenses can be seen here.

Stay tuned.
