Another vote for a 200-500mm IS L. Would fit in nicely with the rest of the range and be a decent size and price. Very realistic lens.

I'd also like to see Canon drop the premium for IS a little as well.

Another lens, probably not many will agree here, would be a good quality, compact 600 or 700mm mirror lens that us mere mortals could afford. I think Canon have the wide and mid range sorted, maybe a tweak here and there, but would like to see some affordable quality telephotos.

And a few quid off the TS-E's would be nice. I'm sure many more would love to experiment at a realistic price rather than caning an elite few.

Lenses in my actual wishlist I will be purchasing this year:

17-40mm f/4L
85mm f/1.8
50mm f/1.4

16-35mm f/2.8L
100-400mm f4.5-5.6L IS
Fisheye 15mm f/2.8
180mm f/3.5L (might actually buy the sigma version of this, if reviews are good)

Now besides lenses, I also have a 580ex on my later wishlist. Maybe a second 420ex too.

I'm not sure but I don't think the 1.4X TC works with the 3 lenses you want.

Sigma's 150mm f2.8 is a great lens. Very highly recommended.

200-500 f/5.6 IS L here. I'd relinquish my Bigma for that lens. It is possible, although it will be bigger and heavier than the Bigma due to the larger aperture.

The Bigma requires a theoretical minimum front element size of ~79mm (500mm / 6.3, which it really is), and winds up at a practical minimum of 86mm (filter size). A 500 / 5.6 = ~89mm, probably going to be 95-100 mm filter size when it actually comes out. But worth it. Canon please give me an integrated lens hood, I love that kind.

Also within the realm of possibility (it's already been done, just not in EF) - bring back our Canon 50 f/1.2! I want one with REAL ring ultrasonic motors and seriously solid build quality. The 50 f/1.4 is halfbaked in my opinion, build quality does not impress me (see EF-S 60 macro for REAL build quality). I shoot with the plastic fantastic 50 1.8 only because its price tag was commensurate with the compromises I was making.

40 f/1.2L would also be nice. I'd shoot it on full frame, but the slightly expanded FOV is cool with me.

I heard a rumor about a EF 14-35mm f/4L, and this would probably knock my 17-40 off its perch if the image quality is up to par, because I love rectilinear wide angle, the wider the better.

16-35 f/2.8L
24-70 f/2.8L(although its not as needed since the 16-35) pairs better with the 70-200.
