interesting...although just because there is a patent on the idea, dosen't mean that it will be produced. Would be cool though!

That would indeed be nice. Could be good on APS-H
12-24 would be better

I think they should do a 12-24 just to put on above Nikon :lol: too

Canon already has a hand in creating a 14mm optic and a 24mm optic.

Marrying that range makes more sense I think.

From looking over the patent document, it seems that there are 4 designs; 2 seem to be zooms and the other 2 appear to be primes.

Hmm, that would be nice. I just don't think my Visa would appreciate it that much if it comes out.

I don't imagine it would be Canon's cheapest L.. I assume it would have a red ring..

A 14-24 or 12-24 would be ideal for this type of lens if ever made by Canon. I'd ditch my 16-35 II in a heartbeat. :) The price tag will definitely be around Nikon's 14-24. Give or take a few hundred. :)

While I would like to see a new f/2.8 zoom, maybe there will be a new f/4 zoom. I could definately go for something like that as well.

If you compare the diagrams with the 14-24G cutaway on KR's site, you'll see the diagrams have a number of additional elements, so I'm expecting some hefty price tags if these designs come to fruition.

And I'd pick up one of your used 16-35Ls on the cheap. :D

A constant f/4 is doable in my books. :) Although, Canon would have to make it 2.8 to keep it king of the UWA zooms. :)
