First of all i don't believe f/1.4 for UWA zoom lens is even possible...

Other than than, appreciate any new UWA lens for RF mount. With smaller body i appreciate more smaller, darker but stabilized lenses. 15-35 f/4 IS around 600g would be great, same as 14-21 or 11-24. EOS R is all about balance. Making it head heavy is a pain.

It probably won't happen, but I think it would be possible. I'm not sure that there would be a huge market for such a lens, given that it would cost $3,000 or so IMHO.

I agree with others - a nice f/4 "holy trinity" set would be really nice, especially if they were pretty small and light. At the wide end, the shorter flange-sensor distance should be quite an asset. For longer telephotos, not an issue.

A nice ultra-wide like the 15-35 in f/4 flavor, 24-70 or 24-85 IS, and a 70-200 or something of that nature. All in f/4, all small. Make the light weight of the RF part of a lightweight system.

I suspect that Canon has a few lenses in the works, and I think we'll see 7 or 8 new lenses next year for the RF mount. And, third parties will probably be putting out something pretty quick too.
