Canon RF 200-500mm f/4L IS USM "confirmed" for later this year

Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS USM Extender 1.4x

A Canon RF 200-500mm f/4L IS USM has been long rumored, and now the team over at Canon Rumors has managed to confirm its existence, and that we might see it as soon as the end of this year!

We reported a few months ago about the first rumors of a Canon RF 200-500mm f/4L IS USM lens. Canon already makes a similar EF version of this lens – the Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS USM Extender 1.4x. However, the latest information from Canon Rumors suggests that to reduce the overall size and weight of the lens, the new RF version will forgo the 1.4x teleconverter but will add an additional 100mm in focal length to compensate.
