Canon 50mm f/1.2L II Lens Coming in 2016
Canon will replace the EF 50mm f/1.2L USM prime lens with the Mark II version and it will be slightly smaller than current one, but a bit heavier. The new design will include a floating element like the EF 85 f/1.2L II and get rid of the focus shift problem.
The EF 50mm f/1.2L II lens expected to come after Canon’s next prime L lens which is looking like a EF 35mm f/1.4L II model.
Currently the price of the EF 50mm f/1.2L lens is around $1,500. The bright prime optic is a high-end lens and the new version will probably have a very high price tag too.
