BIG NUMBERS AND CANON LENSES

Saturday, January 28, 2006

Canon is now celebrating total production of 30 million EF lenses. It took Canon less than 20 years to reach the number, with the first EF lenses produced in 1987. 30 million sure looks like a big figure for a niche market like interchangeable lenses for EOS cameras. If I were asked to guess a number of lenses Canon has produced, I would probably have put it at a million or so! Read the detailed press release with some facts about the EF lenses.
