SUMMARY

Rumors surrounding a brand named Vistilen, reportedly selling autofocus prime lenses for Canon's full-frame RF mount, indicate a significant demand from Canon shooters for more third-party lens choices. While Canon has stated intentions to increase collaboration with third-party manufacturers, the current availability of full-frame autofocus lenses for the RF mount is limited, with many existing options being manual focus or for APS-C cameras. The Vistilen lenses appear identical to Meike lenses, leading to speculation that Meike is operating under a shell brand to circumvent Canon's regulations, though this remains unconfirmed.
