Yes
3 new ts-e (50, 90 and 135) lenses and the 85 1.4 IS

They're all very expensive but the 50 might be a good one, also, they made a ts-e 135 before a new 135 with IS? Seems weird to me as the original is 21 years old

On Canon USA site, mentioned on dpreview, Fred Miranda so thankfully not just rumours ;)
 
£1500 is for the 85mm, not bad I suppose.
 
Will probably get the 85/1.4 IS but will give the TSE a miss, it costs twice as much as my 45/TSE!
 
I will see, I've got the 85 1.2 so it depends how the 1.4 looks and if the focus is much faster it might be worth it

If I get it I will probably still keep the 1.2, there is nothing else like it.

I agree, I've had 3 because every time you think you don't need it and sell it you realise you need it again, but I want the 35ii before any of these, wouldn't mind playing with a ts-e lens though, out of the new ones I'd have the 50 I think
 
I really want the 85mm, but the obvious question is Sigma ART not a better compromise? It is brand and IS vs price... I know the IS would be very nice. Even f/1.2 used go for a lot less.

The 1.2 is slow, it CA like crazy but it's 1.2 with crazy bokeh. In the right place it produces images unmatched by anything else.

I have the 35Lmk2 and it is a stonking piece of glass. If the 85/1.4 matches that then it would be unbelievable. Worth the price over the Sigma even without the IS.
