A new rumor surfaced, suggesting Canon might announce two lenses: an RF 70-300mm f/2-4L IS And RF-S 33mm f/1L.
We do not think the rumor is reliable. f/2-4 and f/1 (for APS-C sensors) sound very unlikely to us. The source claims:
Canon RF-S 33mm f/1L USM lens
Canon RF 70-300mm f/2-4L IS USM: 1.6kg zoom lens that still has a large aperture of f/2.4 at 150mm. The image quality at 300mm should be equal to or even better than the already discontinued Canon EF 300mm f / 4L IS USM lens.
This happens every time Canon releases a new camera: lots of fake rumors trying to capitalize on the hype. This time it is an alleged RF-S 22mm f/2 STM lens.
An image of an alleged RF-S 22mm f/2 STM pancake lens surfaced on a website already known to spread false rumors. Our sources confirmed the image is not real. You can see the fake RF-S 22mm f/2 STM lens on top.

As usual a few days after the announcement of a new Canon camera, a new rumor surfaces suggesting Canon RF-S lenses for the new Canon camera.
The Canon EOS R7 and EOS R10, Canon’s first EOS R models with an APS-C imaging sensor, have been announced a fews days ago. Along with the EOS R7 and EOS R10, two RF-S lenses have also been announced. And here is the list of the next RF-S lenses that might get announced:
RF-S 22mm F2 STM
RF-S 11-55mm F4-4.5 IS STM
RF-S 55-250mm F4.5-7.1 IS STM
RF-S 6-55mm F2.8 IS USM
RF-S 32mm F1.4 STM
Hard to say how reliable the list is. Some of the lenses are just “common sense” lenses, meaning it is very likely Canon will announce them, sooner or later (22mm & 32mm, for instance). Generaly speaking, the list above reminds the EOS M system. Nothing strange in Canon replicating their EF-M lenses to the RF-S system.
What are your thoughts about the RF-S lenses list? Reliable?
A few days to go to the announcement of the Canon EOS R10, Canon EOS R7, and at least two RF-S lenses. All this gear is for Canon’s new EOS R models with an APS-C imaging sensor.
New specifications for the upcoming EOS R10 and EOS R7 surfaced on Asian sites. Also, the RF-S lenses seem to be confirmed to be the RF-S 18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM and RF-S 18-150mm F3.5-6.3 IS STM. Here is the complete list of specifications that have leaked so far:
Canon EOS R7
32.5MP APS-C dual pixel CMOS imaging sensor
15 frames per second mechanical shutter continuous shooting
30 frames per second electronic shutter continuous shooting
SD UHS-II dual slot
4K 50/60fps
1080p 100/120fps
C-Log3 / HDR PQ
In-body image stabilization
Canon EOS R10
24.2 million pixels
15fps mechanical shutter
23fps electronic shutter
SD UHS-II single slot
HDR PQ
The announcement is expected for May 24, 2022. Stay tuned!
It seems we were utterly wrong about the EOS R7. Not only now it seems ascertained that Canon will release an EOS R model with APS-C sensor, but there is more we can expect.
Latest, reliable rumors from Japan suggest that Canon is set to announce a bunch of new gear, all related to APS-C imaging sensor. This is the list:
EOS R7 body
EOS R7 18-150mm Kit
EOS R10 body
EOS R10 18-45mm Kit
EOS R10 18-150mm Kit
RF-S 18-45mm IS
RF-S 18-150mm
So, it seems we will soon see not one but two EOS R models with an APS-C imaging sensor.
