Canon has revealed details on seven new EOS Cinema lenses for the new EOS C300 camera and the upcoming 4K DSLR camera.
The lenses are high-end cinema lenses rated better than 4K resolution. The new CN-E24mm T1.5 L F, CN-E50mm T1.3 L F and CN-E85mm T1.3 L F lenses are designed for all current Canon EOS sensor formats, including full frame coverage on the 5D Mark II and 1D X. The 24mm and 50mm lenses will be available in July 2012, while the 85mm is set for an August 2012 release. All three new cinema primes retail for $6800.
The 14.5-60mm (Jan. 2012) and 30-300mm (Mar. 2012) cinema zoom lenses ring in at $45,000 and $47,000, respectively. Note that these lenses are only compatible with Super 35 / APS-C format image sensors.

I spent a few hours at the Canon EOS & PIXMA event this evening. The core of the event was promoting the new PIXMA PRO-1 and the fact that it was built in conjunction with the EOS camera system – to take full advantage of what these cameras are capable of. Seeing several of the large prints from the PIXMA PRO-1, it’s clear that this new printer delivers on the quality. The bigger attraction for me, however, was the fact that there were several Canon 1D X’s to put in my hands. [Read more…]
The Canon event kicks off in about 10 minutes. I’ll have more on this later this evening.
Just yesterday, Nikon announced 65 million NIKKOR lenses have been produced. Now, a single day later, Canon announces production of 70 million lenses. Also, 50 millions EOS DSLRs are out there. That’s a pretty mild lens-to-camera ratio.
Talk about gamesmanship…
