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.

Are These The Next Canon RF-S Lenses (22mm, 32mm, 11-55mm, 55-250mm, 6-55mm)?

Canon RF-S lenses

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?

The list of gear we can expect on May 24, 2022:

  • 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

Stay tuned for more to come…

Update: we expect the announcement on May 24, 2022.

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.

Stay tuned for more to come…

IS A Canon RF 20-40mm f/4 STM Pancake Lens On Its Way?

Canon might soon announce a RF 20-40mm f/4 STM pancake lens for the EOS R system.

The rumor surfaced on Weibo, and not much is revealed. Here the machine translated text:

It is whispered that a Canon RF 20-40mm F4 STM full-frame mirrorless pancake lens that emphasizes portability and convenience when shooting movies is under development (generally credible). RF mount video pancake lenses have also been rumored once before, but there is no new news since then.

Guess it is entirely possible for Canon to release such a lens. Time will tell. Stay tuned.
