A Canon Full Frame Mirrorless dream (50mm f/2.0 lens patent spotted).

Egami (translated) spotted a new Canon lens patent describing a 50mm f/2.0 lens. Egami “speculates” that this may be a lens for a Full Frame mirrorless system. Yep, as far as I understand there is no evidence this lens may be designed for a mirrorless system. May Japanese readers can help me to understand why Egami is making such speculation. That said I believe it’s inevitable that sooner or later Canon, Nikon, Fuji and Sony will launch a FF mirrorless system.

By the way, Canon already launched a similar lens for the FD system! It is the [shoplink ’55mm 1.2′ ebay]55mm f/1.2 (here on eBay)[/shoplink].
