On Reddit Canon Photographers Outlined the 2026 Lens Wishlist:

• RF 35–135mm f/2 — frequently mentioned as a dream lens that could challenge the RF 28–70mm f/2 as a top all-around professional zoom.
• RF 50–150mm f/2 — desired as a slightly more realistic alternative to a 35–135mm f/2, still offering constant f/2 with reduced size and cost.
• RF 70–150mm f/2 — proposed as a compact, high-performance telephoto zoom to complement fast standard zooms.
• RF 70–180mm f/2.8 — expected to be lighter and more compact than the current RF 70–200mm f/2.8, appealing to video shooters and travelers.
• RF 70–200mm f/2.8 (lighter / updated version) — users want a redesigned version with reduced weight and size while retaining optical quality and teleconverter support.
• RF 24–50mm f/2.8 — requested as a compact, fast standard zoom similar to Sony’s offering, prioritizing portability over extreme range.
• RF 24–70mm f/4 (compact) — preferred by many over faster lenses due to smaller size, lower weight, and modern high-ISO camera performance.
• RF 24–105mm f/2.8 — desired for its versatility, constant f/2.8 aperture, and ability to replace multiple lenses in professional kits.
• RF 15–35mm f/2.8 L — mentioned as a highly desirable ultra-wide zoom for APS-C bodies like the Canon C70.
• RF 35mm f/1.2 L — considered a major gap in Canon’s RF lineup, especially as a companion to the RF 85mm f/1.2 L.
• RF 50mm f/1.2 — repeatedly referenced as a cornerstone fast prime that many users plan to own or already rely on.
• RF 85mm f/1.2 — often paired with the desire for a matching RF 35mm f/1.2 to form a premium prime duo.
• RF 35mm f/1.4 (Canon or Sigma) — requested as a more affordable, smaller alternative to an f/1.2 lens, especially if Sigma gains RF access.
• RF Sigma 14mm f/1.8 — strongly requested if Canon opens the RF mount to third-party manufacturers, filling a unique ultra-wide fast-prime niche.
• RF 300–600mm f/4–5.6 L — anticipated as a long-range wildlife lens positioned between affordable zooms and expensive super-telephoto primes.
• RF 100–300mm f/2.8 — mentioned as a high-end professional zoom that could replace multiple telephoto primes.
• RF 100–400mm (updated / improved version) — users want a modernized version with better optics and features while remaining affordable.
• RF 400mm f/5.6 (affordable prime) — desired as a lightweight, reasonably priced telephoto prime similar in spirit to older EF designs.
• RF Fisheye lens(prime or zoom) — requested as a native RF option, either as a dedicated prime or an RF version of the 8–15mm zoom.
• RF-S 22mm f/2 (ported from EF-M) — users hope Canon will revive popular EF-M compact primes for the RF-S system.
• RF-S 32mm f/1.4 (ported from EF-M) — highly regarded EF-M lens that many want reborn for APS-C RF cameras.
• RF 35–150mm f/2.8–4 or f/2–2.8 — desired as a versatile medium-telephoto zoom similar to Tamron’s popular designs.
• RF 100–500mm (lighter / cheaper variant) — interest in a more affordable or lighter version to bridge the gap between consumer zooms and super-telephoto lenses.

The suggested RF 35-135mm F2 is viewed as a potential favorite that could challenge the RF 28-70mm F2 for the user’s top spot.
