I mean if its a good sharp lens that focuses well then this is going to be the lens/deal of the century.

looks like the Canon 100mm f/2
Yongnuo Releases Budget 100mm f/2 Lens for Canon, Costs Just $170

but that's no surprise since Canon owns Yongnuo so I would expect something similar (the knock-off at slightly less quality at cheaper prices, like the flashes)

Canon owns Yongnuo? Awesome.

Canon owns Yongnuo? Awesome.

That's the first time I have ever read such a claim... About Us-Yongnuo Photographic Equiment Co., Ltd

But hey, I don't follow what Canon does very closely...so...

As far as the "quality" of Yongnuo products, their $69 50mm f/1.8 Canon EF-II knock-off is disappointing, compared against the genuine $115 Canon EF-II lens.

Still: this new lens looks a LOT like the Canon 100/2 of 1991, at least externally, and a 100mm f/2 lens is not "exotic" really. This thing ought to be worth the $169.95 or whatever it hits the street priced at. It's a good thing to have options.

options.

actually the current Canon 50mm 1.8 is the STM version
but yes, I believe Canon owns Yongnuo and Yongnuo produces knock-off lens and flashes and flash triggers (all made in China)
