After the \"EF-s Primes\" Poll, I got to thinking that there are now less than a handful of \"L\" Primes that haven\'t been updated in the \"Digital Age\".
Here are the lenses 200mm and below (not counting the 200L f/2 IS) that have not been updated. Thinking that Canon has more priorities to update these than create a line of EF-s Primes, which one would you like to see updated and considered a \"prediction\" or speculation? And maybe even a \"why\" you\'d like it to happen. Possibly the end also of \"Non-L\" line primes?
EF35mm f/1.4L USM-Dec. 1998 vs. No Mk II*** EF135mm f/2L USM-Apr. 1996 vs. No Mk II *** - Gets my nomination !!!
EF200mm f/2.8L USM-Dec. 1991 vs EF200mm f/2.8L II USM-Mar. 1996***
Here are the Prime \"L\" Lenses and their dates that have been updated since the \"Film\" age...
EF14mm f/2.8L USM-Dec. 1991 vs. EF14mm f/2.8L II USM-Sept. 2007
EF24mm f/1.4L USM-Dec. 1997 vs. EF24mm f/1.4L II USM-Dec. 2008
EF50mm f/1.0L USM-Sept. 1989 vs. EF50mm f/1.2L USM-Jan. 2007
EF85mm f/1.2L USM-Sept. 1989 vs. EF85mm F/1.2L II USM-Mar. 2006
(I left the 100 f/2.8 Macro IS off the list cause it\'s not an \"L\" upgrade per se)
