New rumors from Canon Rumors suggest that Canon will release a replacement to the aging EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS lens next month.
The new 100-400mm lens is rumored to be similar in design to the recent EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS lens, which offers a thinner focus ring near the base and a wider zoom ring near the front of the lens.
Additionally, the lens hood is rumored to feature a retractable opening that will allow you to adjust your circular polarizer or fader ND filter while keeping the lens hood on the lens.
After we recently saw Amazon list an availability date for the Canon 7D Mark II for October 30, B&H now confirms on its 7D Mark II product page that the camera will ship out next Thursday on October 30 for both the body and the kit options. Check it out here at B&H Photo.
