Is This The Upcoming Canon RF 24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM Lens?

An image surfaced on Instagram, allegedly it shows the upcoming Canon RF 24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM (image on top). But is it real?

For the time being we have no indications the image might be a fake (nor to we have indications it might not be a fake). In any case: take it with a grain of salt. Regarding the watermark, it seems to be sort of joke to a well known rumor site.

What do you think, image real or fake?

Announcement of new Canon gear on February 8, 2023. Stay tuned…

It seems that Canon is set to announce the RF 24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM lens very soon, possibly this month.

Asobinet reports that Canon will release the RF 24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM most likely in February 2023. No specifications so far but I am sure they will flock in soon too. We think the RF 24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM will be a diminutive and light-weighted lens, and an entry level lens too.

Stay tuned…
