It would have to be f3.9 or f4.1 or something weird (f3.8-4.2 variable aperture?), because it's a Limited... :D

I wonder, though if refreshing the Limited online presence is a precursor to a new Limited of some sort that is already on the roadmap?
Could the 70-200 f4 be the first DFA limited zoom? It’s rumored to be compact and light... Could the super-wide DFA prime be a limited?
Are there others we’re overlooking?

The recent Lensrentals test of a stack of 70-200 Canon lenses showed a lot less than typical sample variation.
In fact, it showed the least of any zoom tested.
That part is down near the bottom...

They put that down primarily to the increased use of automation in lens manufacture Canon has implemented.
So while I really like hand assembly for some things, it may be something of a dying art on the lens front... at least for the big-volume lenses.

I think the 24-50 range would be terrific, but it would take more than a refresh of the old one.
As much as I like my A variant, the bokeh characteristics are far from what a Limited should be...
