Canon Korea promo video confirms the RF 70-200mm F2.8 lens won`t have internal zoom
(Digital Photography Review)

A new video from Canon Korea gives us a closer look at Canon´s upcoming RF L F2.8 trinity and confirms what we´ve more or less known with the upcoming RF 70-200mm F2.8-it won´t be an internal zoom. The 72-second video shows off sample images and specifications from each of the three lenses Canon showed off earlier this year: the RF 15-35mm F2.8 L IS USM, RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM and RF 70-200mm F2.8 L IS USM. As expected from the first time we saw the ridiculously compact 70-200mm F2.8 L IS USM, the lens will have an extending section for when shooting at longer focal lengths, as seen in the animated GIF above. This video marks the first time we´ve seen the extending section in action and as seen in the video, the zoom ring will have a rather short throw when going from 70mm out to 200mm. Pricing and availability for the 70-200mm F2.8 still up in the air, but we expect to find out before the end of the year based on Canon´s own lens roadmaps.
