Three new lenses join Canon's lineup

[Admin]

Rounding out Canon's announcements today are a trio of new lenses: the EF 100mm f/2.8L IS Macro, EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS and EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS.

At last a IS Macro lens.

very interesting that they've replaced the 17-85 IS which is a bit of a pain but nice to use on paper. wonder if they'll have the same problems the 17-85 has at wide??
also a 18-135 IS instead of a 28-135? cracking idea for a walkabout lens.
again, i'll be interesting in tests on these.

I hope the £ price isn't go to be equal to the $, otherwise the 15-85mm is going to expensive for the spec.

If they do the same as the 7d body price then they will be a direct swap $ to £ (7d is listed at $1,699 and £1,699 for pre-order) :thumbsdown:
