Canon has just filed two new lens patents RF 85mm f/1.8 lens and RF 100mm f/2.8 lens. New Canon patents are for RF-mount and will be designed for company’s full frame mirrorless cameras.
These are probably non-L lenses and we hope the 100mm is a macro glass. Check out the patent details for Canon RF 85mm f/1.8 & RF 100mm f/2.8 Lenses.
