People seem to forget that Canon is three years or so in on the RF line. How many EF lenses were there even five years after the mount debuted? How many Sigma EF lenses were there at that time?

I think the line up is pretty impressive all things considered. EF didn’t even have to deal with a global pandemic.

Although, unlike the early years of EF mount, both Sigma and Tamron already have the mirrorless-ready design for many lenses, they should just change the mount and the software.

Anyway the main point of the post and my reply is more about Canon policy's itself. Back in the days there was low, medium, high priced lenses, now the medium category seems to not be considered anymore, it's either budget or premium.
