The information is so scarce, and yet you are already jumping to conclusions that the lens will not have USM??? WTF?? Given that the 24 and 28 have been updated with both IS and USM, it is certain that the updated 35 f/2 will also have IS and USM.Interesting that it doesn't list USM. Leave it to Canon to introduce another fail. They only put 2.8 on the new 24 and 28 but got the USM right. This rumored 35/2 gets the aperture right but no USM.http://www.canonrumors.com/2012/02/patent-canon-ef-35-f2-is/
Sadly it only exists in patent form at present...
I hope you are correct. However, you have to admit that leaving the new 24mm and 28mm lenses at f2.8 is a fail. When the 24/2.8 and 28/2.8 were released in the late 90's, there were no 2.8 zooms available so they actually gained you something in aperture. Times have changed and Canon didn't update those new primes with the times.The information is so scarce, and yet you are already jumping to conclusions that the lens will not have USM??? WTF??

I am very looking forward to these new updated primes, they will be fantastic for both full frame and APS cameras!

Well, if they were f/2, they would be even more expensive, and for sure they would not be this compact. As for timing, the EF 28-70 f/2.8 L was introduced in 1993, whereas the 24, 28, and 35 lenses were introduced between 1987 and 1990.I hope you are correct.

True but they really shouldn't be. The 28/1.8 in a new design should increase the price by 150% simular to what the 70-200/2.8 IS I to II did and add $50-100 for IS (remember the 18-55IS only costs like $100 in kit form) and you have about $800-850 for a f1.8 lens. The prices on these new 2.8 stabilized primes are rediculous.Well, if they were f/2, they would be even more expensive,
Sure. The 28/1.8 only weighs like 130 grams more than the 28/2.8 and adding IS to the 2.8 only added like 75 grams. This would put a theoretical 28/1.8 IS at about the same weight as my Sigma 30/1.4. Is this a deal breaker for you?and for sure they would not be this compact.
Thanks for the correction, I said late 80's in my head but typed late 90's.As for timing, the EF 28-70 f/2.8 L was introduced in 1993, whereas the 24, 28, and 35 lenses were introduced between 1987 and 1990.
