Canon EOS R6 V and RF 20-50mm f/4L PZ: The Hybrid Shooter's May 13 Double Drop

Canon is shipping two things on May 13 that actually matter to shooters who live between stills and video. The R6 V is the body, but the RF 20-50mm f/4L IS USM PZ is the real conversation starter. A power-zoom L-series lens at this focal range targets run-and-gun videographers and hybrid shooters who need smooth electronic zoom pulls without a separate zoom controller clipped to a rig. That is a specific, real problem Canon is solving. If you shoot corporate video, events, or any talking-head work where a smooth zoom during a take matters, this lens is worth your attention the moment reviews land.
