    Actually, I shouldn't have said, "just a rumor"....the rumor is based on a patent application. So, the design for these lenses exists and a patent has been applied for. There was a previous rumor a few months back that the 2021 lens road map included 400, 500, 600, 800, and 1200 mm super telephotos. The patent applications for the 200 and 300 mm are new, but not that surprising. Many patent applications that are dug up are never produced, but, that said, if there is a new lens, it is usually shortly after someone digs up the patent application. So, stay tuned. Currently, they are still talking about holding the Olympics in Japan this summer, Canon is a sponsor. Great opportunity to release some interesting gear like this.
