A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

When will we see 24-105 f2.8 competitors? (alien.top)

Now that Canon has announced theirs and there has been plenty of reviews of it, I'm wondering when we can see competing products from the likes of Sony and Nikon or third parties like Tamron or Sigma? I'm new to photography and haven't yet grasped the cadence of releases like this. Do competing products come around pretty quickly or are all of them just blindsided by this and maybe more than a year off from having a viable product?

Tamron released the 35-150 f/2-2.8 years ago. Basically the same idea as the Canon but better (wider focal range, faster aperture, half the price).

Not sure where the innovation is, kinda reminds me of Apple congratulating themselves for releasing an iPhone with a USBC port
