A FF fisheye zoom and a L version of the 70-300 IS? Am I the only one who\'s saying what the Hell?

Why not an updated UWA reticular like the Nikon 14-24? - now that\'s a lens that I could get excited about. Or the lens that would sell like crazy - the 24-70 f/2.8 IS? Or how about a decent 50 1.4 with true USM? This is definitely a strange release offering IMO.


A 15 FE replacement makes sense, given the lenses age and the competition, but I don\'t know where the heck the 70-300 L came from. Perhaps Canon figured they were loosing too many 70-200/4 sales to the 70-300 IS and so they designed an L to insure it wouldn\'t continue to happen? I agree about an updated UWA zoom--this is a must IMO. As for the 24-70IS and the 50/1.4 USM, I can see one of the two happening. With the recent releases I think Canon is beginning to show their cards--I honestly don\'t think the EF (non-L) line has a future. If we do see a 50/1.4 USM it wouldn\'t surprise me at all to see it in either EF-S or L form. As for the 24-70, I still have hope for an IS version or at the very least an MKII to role around.
