You can still pre-order RF lenses from Canon, but the maker has stated they do not expect to start shipping until sometime in August of 2021 and in limited quantities. So if you’re looking into purchasing an RF lens, it’s probably best to order as soon as possible, knowing there will be a longer than normal wait time for it to arrive.  Here is the list of the RF lenses affected by the delays.  Via Canon Rumors
