Unfortunately, I don't think their ultimate intent will matter. 3rd party is unlikely to be willing to develop specifically for RF even if Canon does open up to it at this point. Hopefully I'm wrong, but at this point I think the ecosystem will conti...
For adapted lenses (which he was discussing) you can get the Tameron 24-70 2.8 and the 70-200 2.8 for about the same as that one. Or you can get the Sigma art 50-100 to get that to f1.8. For RF native, there's the 28-70 f2 and the 70-200 f2.8I'm as c...
AF lenses that were previously available are no longer available. This includes those removed following the cease and desists and also others that have more quietly vanished either due to less public cease and desists or chilling effects from the kno...
Yes, but it's irrelevant to my post. Regardless of whether Canon will eventually allow third party af lenses, there are fewer RF lenses available today than there were a month and a half ago and the pace of lens releases is unlikely to match other mo...
Yeah, it's a very troubling move as it's probably going to hamstring lens selection for years. I know, you can always adapt the deep bench of EF glass to RF, but that doesn't help them much as you can also adapt it to E mount. If someone is looking t...
