It’s only been a week since the news about Interesting Canon lens patent released, and here we are again with another ridiculous new set of lenses from the company. This time, it’s for a collection of superzoom lenses that are beyond the bounds of most such lenses we’ve seen before.
Patents, Discovered by Northlight picturesDetails of four new superzoom lenses:
- 24-400mm f/4-6.5
- 24-300mm f/4-5.6
- 28-500mm f/4-7.2
- 30-600mm f/8
Of course, with a zoom range as large as 20x, such lenses will likely differ from those seen last week in terms of image quality and intended application, but they are sure to appeal to many photographers. Photographers salivate at the prospect of having a lens to cover everything from wide-angle to the most extreme telephoto focal lengths. As always, the appearance of a patent does not mean that a product will hit the market and it is unlikely that Canon will bring all four of these lenses to market. That being said, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a larger superzoom camera RF 24-240mm F / 4-6.3 IS USM finally appeared.
