Is the Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L II ready for production? That’s what a new rumor suggests.

The rumor doesn’t come with an announcement date, but Fall 2015 is a good candidate. The rumored specifications:

• Dust & Weather Sealing
• All the latest coatings
• Longer than the current version
• Smaller diameter than the current version
• Smaller filter thread
• New hood design
• Unknown weight

Apparently Canon delayed the announcement of the EF 35mm f/1.4L II because the company is still trying to produce enough units of other high demand lenses.
