Yes, A+ for effort.

Even though technically they are not credited to canonrumours correctly. Sorry, couldn't resist that mate!

If I shot architecture or interiors I'd be pumped...but I don't, so I'm not

+1 it's very exciting for sure, but not for me

I can imagine there'd be a whole lot of people on DPR right now blasting Canon:
"Where's the 24-70 IS?"
"Where's the 100-400 II?"
"Where's the 135L IS?"
"Where's the 400 f/5.6L IS?"

That 17mm looks pretty cool. If it's sharp, I'll be selling my 16-35mm.

I'll save FM from the very same thing--I admit I was banking on at least three of the four you listed

A TS-E, let alone two, isn't exactly what I was expecting...specifically at the projected price points (assuming they are even close).

That 24mm looks tasty to me. Can't say I would get much mileage from the 17.

Check out the beasty barrel on the 17...

Of course im funneling the images from the same german site that canonrumors is.

What the fauck, I was going to pre-order the 200mm f/2.8 TS IS MkII. I hate Canon.

At €2499 for the 17mm and €2299 for the 24mm they are not cheap lenses.

Has it been confirmed that they can tilt & swing at the same time?

Realistically what would be possibly uses?

- Architecture, indoors and outdoors (shift)
- Product photography, studio (tilt)
- Landscape, when you don't have a ladder (tilt)

What else am I missing?

I am trying to reason why I don't need these

Well, I don't find any use for it either but it's a cool to have and "I've got lot of cash to spend"

Maybe the 45 or 90...but 24 and 17 are a bit wide for most wedding usage where the 16-35 and 24-70 win based on versatility alone. Of course everyone has their own style, so who knows.

I agree, if this is all Canon has to offer in terms of lenses, that's a poor showing. I don't believe that TS-E lenses are big sellers in comparison to the four lenses listed above. Clearly, and this comes from various sites, people want the 400mm to be updated. I mean, come on.......if Canon can introduce excellent IS into their other telephotos down to the 300 f/4 while maintaining sharpness, then clearly the time has easily come for the 400. It's one thing to leave IS off of.....say, the 135L and the little 200L. They're so small, light and compact as well as their focal lengths being low that it's not a big deal. But the 400

The 24-70 seems to get a mixed bag: some want IS, others not. I would mind IS, it would add to an already great walkaround lens.
