From Canon's Instagram.  With retailers advertising this, it looks to be a very credible. 

Lenses to be announced October 30, 2024

  • Canon RF 24mm f/1.4L VCM
  • Canon RF 50mm f/1.4L VCM
  • Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM Z (Internal Zoom) - Not sure of the color(s) yet.  Basic black is likely.  Great white is possible. 

I'm happy with the "compact" version, but the Z design would appear to support teleconverters.  

An RF 200-500 is rumored for next month.  Maybe with the R1.  Thats's still a rumor.  😊

The 24mm F/1.4L sounds very tempting!  I also like the idea of the internal zoom on the 70-200mm F/2.8L.

I just received an email today about Canon's upcoming hybrid lenses, but the info was practically zilch.  Guess I'll have to wait until the 30th to see what those are about.

I like the reference. Is Canon quoting Shakespeare or Ray Bradbury?

Based on the silhouettes, they are in basic black, so they should go well with your pearls.
