The rumors were too good to be true, but now we have a picture of a brace of super-super-telephoto lenses, the RF 800 F/5.6 and the RF 1200 f/8.

canon rf800 and rf 1200Reportedly launching on Thursday, February 24, the image seems to indicate that these are similar in design to the RF 400 f/2.8 and RF 600 f/4 that are themselves older EF designs with RF adapters permanently affixed.

That may give some hope to EF mount holdouts, whose denial may rise to the extent that they think Canon will make EF versions of these lenses. In a less constrained parts supply environment, that may have been more likely.
