An f4 lens would be acceptable for a reduction in price. And don't even think about putting IS in it to ramp up the price. Deadline: March 2013. Carry on. Agree 100%.

That makes sense. They would then have 14-24, 24-70, 70-200, 200-400. No overlap and a killer line up! Lloyd

umphotography grabbing their Johnson  More info | Really wish canon would make a 14-24 f/2.8.....the 16-35 is good but that extra 2mm on full frame is heaven. If Nikon can do it, why cant Canon. Mike

Yes I guess there is some desensitizing going on there. Though if they can provide a lens smaller, a little slower, and as sharp as the 50L or maybe even better. Give it better bokeh than the 1.4, real USM, and kick in IS for good measure. Price it in between the current 1.4 and 1.2, and I would jump on it.

Yep, if it came down to 2.8 couldnt take filters but f4 could Id take the f4 every time. 2.8 is just nice to have for starscapes but I don't do that type of photography enough to truly care. marfot wrote in post #15382100 I'd rather encourage not to stop what they are doing: http://www.canonrumors.com …4-f2-8l-in-late-2013-cr2/ Deadline you proposed should be shifted few months, I'm afraid.

If Nikon can do it, why cant Canon. I agree. I have the Sigma 12-24, which is pretty good, but a really sharp 2.8 would be awesome. Call me Al Gear Flickr
