I am wondering if we can get a full list of "known approved" EF lenses for the Canon mount that have proper aperture functionality on the Amira and Alexa Mini. I am happy to provide a list of lenses I know do not work properly but would love to know if mapping more lenses comes with each new firmware and also if IS is on the horizon. For anyone shooting TV or Long Lens wildlife IS is super helpful and I would really push to see this in the next firmware.
Thanks,

Ben

Thanks Oliver,
Are you planning to continue to map other lenses with new firmwares? Also is Image Stabilization on the horizon? For long lens wildlife work it would make the world of difference. Let me know and thanks for the reply.

Thanks for the reply. As of now, nearly every other camera on the market supports IS on their mount so it is a big deal to push this forward in future updates.
