What happened on the Canon website? There are very few lenses listed there. The last two lenses I bought are missing, the 35f2 and the 85f1.8.
What is up?

I'm going to be severely disappointed if they just updated the 50mm 1.4 because i just ordered one and should be here any day now. ;-\ I guess i'd return it if they did update it but i'd lose out on a good coupon. Ah well.. Guess we'll find out next week!! 5D Mark II

But maybe I am wrong, so who knows till January 5th and 9th.  The Canon museum has nearly all of the lenses, current and past. The product archive is here:
