Canon Patent Application: Collection of RF Primes
It's been a while since we've seen a new lens patent from Canon. The initial flurry of patent applications during the initial development of the RF system seems to have died off. This could mean we get more targetted patent applications such as this one.
This patent application focuses (literally) on reducing the weight of the focus element group and suppressing aberrations while doing so. Canon submitted the application with the following embodiments.
Are these lenses coming? Some of them certainly may. It's hard to say if Canon makes a complete line of F1.2's that they'll do the same for F1.4, but I suspect we'll see a Canon RF 50mm F1.4 sooner than later.
