A new video from Canon Korea gives us a closer look at Canon’s upcoming RF L F2. 8 trinity and confirms what we’ve more or less known with the upcoming RF 70-200mm F2. 8—it won’t be an internal zoom.
The 72-second video shows off sample images and specifications from each of the three lenses Canon showed off earlier this year: the RF 15-35mm F2. 8 L IS USM, RF 24-70mm F2. 8 L IS USM and RF 70-200mm F2. 8 L IS USM.
As expected from the first time we saw the ridiculously compact 70-200mm F2. 8 L IS USM, the lens will have an extending section for when shooting at longer focal lengths, as seen in the animated GIF above. This video marks the first time we’ve seen the extending section in action and as seen in the video, the zoom ring will have a rather short throw when going from 70mm out to 200mm.
Pricing and availability for the 70-200mm F2. 8 still up in the air, but we expect to find out before the end of the year based on Canon’s own lens roadmaps.
