Canon set to announce three tilt-shift lenses, a 85mm f/1.4L IS lens, and a new macro flash

canon rumors

Something leaked before but we weren’t sure about the reliability. Nokishita reports that Canon will soon announce three new tilt-shift lenses and more stuff.

We expect Canon to announce the following gear:

  • TS-E 50mm f/2.8L
  • TS-E 90mm f/2.8L
  • TS-E 135mm f/4L
  • 85mm f/1.4L IS lens
  • Macro twin light “MT-26EX”
  • Lens hood “ET – 83E” “ET – 88” “ES – 84”

The tilt-shift lenses may also have macro functionality. Some specs for the 85mm f/1.4L IS made it on the web:

  • 4 stop image stabilization (previously mentioned)
  • Flourine coating
  • 1 moulded aspherical element
  • 9 aperture blades

The announcement of all this new gear might happen at the end of August (likely).

Stay tuned, we keep you posted.
