Canon to release firmware update in January 2020 for the Canon RF 70-200mm F2.8L IS USM

Canon has officially acknowledged the problem with the Canon RF 70-200mm F2.8 IS USM, and firmware will be released in January 2020 to address the problem.

As we first reported here, the Canon RF 70-200mm F2.8 IS USM, can exhibit some front focus when you are shooting near minimum focus distance.

Future Firmware Plan: RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM lens

Thank you for using Canon products.

It has been confirmed that when using the RF 70-200mm F2.8 L IS USM to perform AF shooting to capture a subject at close-range with the focus distance approximately set to the Tele-end (200mm), the image may become slightly front-focused.

New firmware with improved focus accuracy is scheduled for release in the beginning of Jan. 2020, and once the preparations are completed, we will post the information on our Web site.

Note: New firmware being released at this time is for lenses equipped with firmware version 1.0.5 or earlier. The lens firmware version can be checked in the camera’s menu.
