Four new Canon Lenses: RF 24 f/1.4 L, 50 f/1.4 L, 70-200 f/2.8 LZ and the RFS 7.8 f/4

No pre-orders for me this round, either. The 28-70/2 covers most of the current use cases I have for any of the VCM primes. You raise a good point about aurora chasing, Brant, and if I plan a trip to Iceland I would likely pick up the 24/1.4 VCM before going. I also have the RF 24/1.8 to tide me over. The 70-200/2.8 Z looks nice, and I (very) briefly considered it…in white to avoid confusion with the nearly identical 24-105/2.8 Z. but I like the compact size of my current RF 70-200/2.8, and the reality is, I’ve been using that lens a lot less since getting the 100-300/2.8.

I’m surprised and frankly, a little disappointed that Canon announced four new lenses, and not one of them sufficiently tempted me. I suppose I will get my pre-order fix in later this morning when the new M4 MacBook Pros are announced.
