Canon announced today that it would be releasing a new ultra-long focus zoom lens, the RS-IL04UL, which would be compatible with Canon's RealiS Professional A/V series projectors. The new lens will give users the flexibility of placing professional A/V systems anywhere from 15 to 290 feet away from a desired projection area. The RS-IL04UL is optimized for 60" to 600" screens, and is best suited for larger venues. It has a suggested list price of $3499, and it should be available at the end of November.
