Canon set to announce two new lenses this week: EF 70-200mm f/4L IS II and EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS III

After a long row of rumors we finally have a solid confirmation. Canon will announce two new L lenses this week.

One lens is the EF 70-200mm f/4L II, which indeed was due for a replacement. The other lens comes as a surprise. It’s the new version of one of the most popular Canon L lenses among professionals, the EF 70-200mm f/2.8L III.

While we have no exact date for the announcement, we can, based on Canon’s announcement patterns, expect both lenses to be announced either Thursday or Friday of this week (that’s June 7 or 8, 2018, depends also where you geographically are).
