First leaked image of the new Panasonic 70-200mm f/4.0 S lens

Damn so close Pana! We were hoping this lens would be f/2.8 but instead L-rumors just leaked this image to prove it’s a f/4.0 lens :(
A bit surprising if you consider the Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 GM lens has exactly the same 77mm filter thread as the new Panasonic.

Let’s see the glas half full….this will probably make the lens cheaper than it would have been as a f/2.8 lens.

Panasonic S1-S1R cameras and S lens preorders will open this Friday (Feb 1) at 11:00 London time!!!

Confirmed: Canon announcement in mid-February!!!

Highly reliable source at CanonWatch told that Canon will have an EOS-R related announcement in mid February. It’sm unclear WHAT is going to be announced. Here are some rumors:

The EOS-RP camera:
I guess the RP will be a new professional model. No specs are rumored yet…

The RF lenses:
Back at Photokina Canon Japan gave us some more info about the future Canon RF lens roadmap. There will be three f/2.8 zooms in 2019-2021. This is just my guess but I think these will be the 16-35mm, 24-70mm and 70-200mm f/2.8 lenses.

Is Canon going to launch a new EOS-RP camera soon?

Nokishita spotted the registration for a new focusing screens or eyecups. And Nokishita added a mysterious note: Canon could soon announce a new “EOS-RP” camera! I have no clue that the “P” stands for…maybe for “professional”???

Here is the google translated text from the tweet:

‘There seem to be 3 colours (black · red · blue?) for Canon “EG-E1”.
Although “EOS RP body only” and “EOS RP 24-105mm kit” are listed on the same list, it’s unknown whether this is a product name or an abbreviation, so at the moment it’s half a story.‘

 

 

First image showing the new “production ready” Panasonic 24-105mm f/4.0 S L-mount lens!

This is the first time we see the aperture info. As expected the lens has a constant f/4.0 aperture. Reminder: The new S1-S1R cameras and S lenses will be fully unveiled next week on Jan 31. Full info on L-rumors.com!
