i think it’s more filling out a full “consumer grade” zoom lens lineup and the prosumer f/4.0 line.
what’s still missing from canon now though is a consumer grade FF lens lineup and a prosumer EF-S lineup – For FF, the 28-135 is pretty old in the tooth and the 17-55 EF-S stands alone with maybe the 10-22mm for EF-S. One could argue that with 17-40/4 and 24-105/4 selling so cheaply that is currently canon’s intention and why they will probably will still sell those lenses.
however, three full lines – two for full frame (16-35,24-70,70-200) one at 2.8 and the other at 4.0; and one complete line IS/STM line for crop (10-18,18-55,55-250) covers alot of ground. bang for the buck the first two IS/STM lenses are really hard to beat; if the 10-18 matches that, it’s certainly going to be a go-to lens for the budget minded.
Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
