Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS and RF 15-35mm f/2.8L IS To be Released Within A Month

RF 24-70mm
View Post

It seems that Canon is eventually releasing two of the “holy trinity” lenses they announced back in February 2019.

According to Nokishita the RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS and RF 15-35mm f/2.8L IS lenses will be available for pre-order within a month.

The last “holy trinity” lens for the EOS R that’s still missing would be the RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS, which we are pretty confident will also be released in 2019.

Prototypes or mockups of the upcoming lenses for the EOS R have been on display at CP+ 2019.

More Canon patent applications are listed here. Some particularly interesting patent applications we think might get into production are these:
