Servo Coming? Rumors Point to a 50

Key Points:

• Canon is rumored to announce an updated version of the CINE-SERVO 50-1000mm T5.0-8.9 lens, potentially featuring full-frame sensor coverage and an RF mount, with an announcement expected soon ahead of NAB starting April 18.
• The current CINE-SERVO 50-1000mm lens, introduced in January 2019 for EF and PL mounts, supports Super35 sensors and is Canon's most expensive non-broadcast lens, priced at $75,840.
• The lens offers a 20x zoom range (50-1000mm) with a built-in 1.5x extender for up to 1500mm, designed for shoulder-mounted operation with variable speed servo zoom and iris controls suitable for both fast action and expressive filming.
• It features advanced broadcast-style capabilities including immediate startup, virtual image data output, a 12-pin camera interface, lens metadata transmission, and compatibility with cinema accessories and lens supports.
• The lens incorporates high-quality optical elements such as aspherical lenses and Canon's fluorite coating to reduce chromatic aberration and achieve sharp, uniform focus across the image.
