That doesn’t mean that the PA people necessarily get to test with every lens, but it certainly does mean that if a problem is reported, verification and a fix ought to be pretty quick. I would think that Canon has a copy of every lens they’ve made, and at least every licensed version of lenses using the EF mount, somewhere in their labs. When you see that Microsoft certified sticker on a box of software or hardware, that tells that somewhere in Redmond, they have that item available for testing. If do product assurance the way it’s done in the computer industry, they really should be able to test everything.
