New Patent: Canon EF 28-560mm f/2.8-5.6 Lens
Canon has filed a new patent for the EF 28-560mm f/2.8-5.6 lens. This is a 20x optical formula super zoom lens designed for Canon full frame DSLRs. A few months ago Canon was allegedly working on the successor to the current EF 28-300 f/3.5-5.6L IS lens. And this EF 28-560mm f/2.8-5.6 lens should be the replacement for the EF 28-300 f/3.5-5.6L IS lens.
