Canon 5D Mark IV Announcement Before NAB 2016?

New rumors suggest that Canon will announce the very highly-anticipated 5D Mark IV in the first quarter of 2016. My guess would be early March, since the 5D Mark III was announced around the same time in 2012 after a long string of rumors pointed to a pre-NAB 2012 unveiling date. Such a move would allow Canon to feature […]

Canon Rumors reports of a tip that Canon is working on a new EF 70-200mm L lens. It would most likely be the aging EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM model that would get the Mark II update. No word on when the lens would be coming but sooner rather than later is likely. Canon has […]

Canon EF 24-70 f/2.8L IS in the Pipeline

The unicorn of standard zooms is rumored to be in the pipeline for Canon shooters. We’ve been begging for a 24-70mm f/2.8L IS lens from Canon for years.

Canon EOS 80D Rumors Picking Up

It’s been over two years since the Canon 70D was introduced. I can’t believe it’s been that long, but the 70D was introduced in July 2013. It was the first of the new range of higher MP cameras (up from the long line of 18MP cameras in Canon’s APS-C range – including Rebels). Canon Rumors […]

New Canon EF 85mm L Lens Coming Soon?

The Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM lens may be getting a companion soon with an updated Canon EF 85mm L lens according to Canon Rumors. The lens should get the new blue spectrum refractive element that we saw introduced in the 35mm last month. Additionally, there is some speculation that the lens could have […]

New Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 & 35mm f/1.4 Lenses Revealed in Patent

A recently published patent application from Canon reveals the development of new 50mm f/1.4 and 35mm f/1.4 lenses, which use similar optical formulas. We know the new EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM lens is due any day now but a 50mm f/1.4 lens hasn’t really been on the radar even though the current EF 50mm f/1.4 […]
