There has been a ton of talk for probably a year now about an RF 200-500mm f/4L IS USM, and in more recent months, there has also been talking of a lens that would “cannibalize sales of an existing RF lens,” but that wouldn’t be the aforementioned f/4L “big white.

The Canon EOS R6 Mark III has been talked about for quite some time, and it is coming in 2025. There has been some thought that we would see the camera announced ahead of CP+ in late February, but we’re now being told not to expect an announcement until March at the earliest.
