Canon EF-M 28mm f/3.5 IS STM macro lens might be the next optic for company’s mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras, as it has just been registered on the website of a Russian agency.
The rumor mill were claiming that a Canon full frame mirrorless camera is in the works. It is expected to become official at Photokina 2016 event with two other EOS series mirrorless models.

Two EOS M models are in the works for the end of 2016. It would be a minor update to the EOS M3, and a 24MP full-frame model aimed at prosumers.
