(CW1) Canon having Problems with Glass Supply?
Northlight Images reports a rumor suggesting that Canon’s…
glass supplies (more exotic types) are limiting the introduction of a whole load of new top end lenses. Canon has new manufacturing capacity, but optical glass making still takes a lot of time and is not just something you can just quickly ramp up
Sounds unreliable to me, and never I got any suggestion pointing in this direction. For me it’s CW1.
About our rumor rating:
- CW1 – probably fake rumor, not reliable
- CW2 – rumor from an unknown/new source, but otherwise at least a plausible rumor
- CW3 – a 50% chance to be real, coming from a known source, or from new source with good insight in Canon’s business
- CW4 – rumor from a known source that was right in the past, high probability to be true
- CW5 – as good as certain to be true
