Another milestone for Canon
Back in the days, it used to be all Nikon if you were a pro. Things changed when the EOS mount was introduced and Canon began its ascendancy.
Canon
has seen several milestones since they began production of their EOS
film SLRs back in 1987, and on May 23rd, they achieved yet another.
While producing EF 24-70mm F/2.8L II USM lenses that day, Canon
surpassed the 90 million mark for their entire EF-series of lenses. If
you remember, just this past August they were celebrating the creation
of their 80-millionth EF lens. 10 million new lenses in just 9 months is
pretty amazing, so we can see why Canon is so proud of this
accomplishment. The bad news was that all the old and great canon FL and FD lenses became obsolete. Nikon never did that. I can use really old Nikkors on my latest Nikon DSLR's.
