Canon RF 24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM Lens Coming Soon for CP+ 2023

Looks like Canon is set to announce the RF 24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM lens very soon, probably later this month. According to latest reports Canon will unveil the RF 24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM most likely in February 2023 for CP+ event. No specifications so far but we think the entry level RF 24-50mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM will be a diminutive and light-weighted lens.

On the other hand Canon is planning to announce a new APS-C EOS R camera soon. The product in question is the Canon EOS R8  and it is rumored to be announced at CP+ 2023 event in February.

Although there are Canon rumors about the Canon R8 that it may be an EOS R (save $200) replacement, the general consensus is that the R8 will be an APS-C RF mount model and sit between the EOS R7 and EOS R10.

There will be other new products to be announced ahead of CP+ 2023. Take it with a grain of salt and stay tuned for the updates.

Canon has filed a new patent application for two RF-mount telephoto lenses with extender: 200-400mm F4 x 1.4 and 200-500mm F4 x 1.4. lenses. Designed for Canon RF-mount full-frame mirrorless cameras, Canon patent application P2022185663 (Japan, published 12/15/2022) discusses optical formulas for two RF-mount telephoto lenses with 1.4 extender, the RF 200-400mm F4 x 1.4 and RF 200-500mm F4 x 1.4.

Canon RF-S 11-22mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM Lens to be Announced in the first half of 2023

Canon is expected to release at least three new RF-S lenses in 2023. One of the lenses that is rumored to be launching in the first half of 2023 is an RF-S 11-22mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM. The EF-M version of this lens was a favorite of EOS M shooters since it was launched. It is a very good lens, especially for its price point.

Currently, there is no wide-angle lens in the RF-S lineup yet, so the introduction of the RF-S 11-22mm F4.5-5.6 IS STM will be greatly welcomed by APS-C users. It seems likely that the optical system will be carried over from the EF-M lens as it is, but the EF-M 11-22mm F4.5-5.6 is a very popular lens, so the RF-S version is likely to have a satisfactory finish. is.

Also, it is said that another EF-M based RF-S lens will be released, but this is a pancake EF-M 22mm F2 or a telephoto zoom EF-M 55-200mm F4.5-6.3 lens. The remaining one seems to be an RF-S original, but I’m curious as to what kind of lens this will be.

Canon recently announced the new RF-S 18–45mm F4.5–6.3 IS STM and RF-S 18–150mm F3.5–6.3 IS STM that are designed to be paired with the new EOS R7 and R10 cameras. In addition to these products, Canon is rumored to announce several new RF-S APS-C mirrorless lenses in 2023.

At the moment, CP+ is also scheduled to be held locally, so what kind of new products will Canon announce for CP+? We’re looking forward to it.
