New information about Canon’s upcoming DSLR cameras and lenses continues to leak. Canon 6D Mark II, EF 85mm f/1.4L IS and Rebel SL2 coming in late 2017.
We are continuously getting leaks about the Rebel SL2 and a possible superzoom camera. We expect Canon finally unveils the true replacement for the SX60 HS camera. The main competitor would be the successor of Nikon P900. The replacement model is claimed to feature 125x zoom lens.
Anyway when we return to recent rumors, the EF 85mm f/1.4L IS USM is a highly anticipated lens for most Canon photographers. This product is to be announced later sometime in Q2/early Q3 of 2017. In addition, it will NOT replace the current EF 85mm f/1.2L ($1,849).
