Some time ago I saw a rumor about 100-300 and having f8 at long end. I'd love to see that lens someday!

Years ago there was also a rumor of a 70-400mm that was f/7.2 on the long end. There have been far more EF-M lens rumors that never materialized than the entire existing EF-M catalog. Aside from a leaked press release a few weeks before launch, none of the existing EF-M lenses were rumored well in advance.

Basically, if you see a rumor of a future EF-M lens, it almost certainly will never come to fruition.

The EF-M 32mm was rumored seven or eight months before launch.

Do you happen to have a link? RLight has repeatedly mentioned that there was a 32mm patent visible before launch but has never been able to find it.

I don’t know about the patent, but the rumor is here:
