Canon EF 11-24mm f/4L lens launch set for mid-October

Canon is rumored to introduce the sought-after the EF 11-24mm f/4L lens in the near future and it could be joined by a big-megapixel DSLR camera.

The talk of the town has mentioned that Canon is actively developing a new full frame optic that will be aimed at professional photographers. The product in question is the EF 11-24mm f/4L. It will be a pro-grade lens with high quality optics, which will most likely have a hefty price tag.

After its first photo was leaked on the web a couple of weeks ago, the announcement date of this wide-angle zoom optic is now said to have been scheduled to take place in the neighboring future. Furthermore, it is stated that the same event will house the introduction of the company’s first big-megapixel DSLR.

Canon EF 11-24mm f/4L lens is rumored to become official soon.

Canon EF 11-24mm f/4L lens launch event to take place in mid-October

Although it has been quite active at Photokina 2014, there are some voices claiming that Canon should have revealed more products, including cameras and lenses, at the world’s largest digital imaging trade fair.

This argument seems pointless to lots of people and their beliefs are fueled by the fact that the rumor mill says that a major announcement event will take place in New York in mid-October.

The show will represent the Canon EF 11-24mm f/4L lens launch event. The optic will offer a constant maximum aperture of f/4 and will be perfect for landscape, architecture, and indoor photography types.

Since it has the L-designation, it means that it will deliver superior image quality and that its price tag will be quite high. Regardless of the lens’ price, this is still a rumor, so do not hold your breath over it.

A Canon big-megapixel DSLR camera could also join the party

The event, that is bound to happen around mid-October, could also house the introduction of the Canon big-megapixel camera, as stated above.

A Canon representative has already confirmed that the company is working on high-resolution optics, while insiders are reporting that a 46-megapixel shooter is on its way.

For the time being, it is unknown whether this camera is replacing a current model or it is part of a brand new series.

However, the EF 11-24mm f/4L lens has a higher chance of becoming real when compared to this alleged DSLR. Either way, we should not rule out any of them, so stick with us to learn more details!
