one of the best in the Rf Line
this is a great lens with very nice bokeh' the rf line if lenses is no joke. i own tne rf 85mm 1.2f rf 70-200mm 2.8 15-35mm and the rf 24to70 . now dont get me wronf the ef line L glass is still very nice glass. BUT....this is a huge but the ef 50mm 1.2f the focus is not as sharp and the af on the rf line will not hunt or search for the eye especially with the R6 body. i also have the R as my backup. now yes you could get the rf 28-70 at f/2 an dont get me wrong i love that lens but.....i sold it heres why. biggest thing the weight and footprint size takes in a bag so i went with my primes an you will never look back. so lets go.over the pros and cons. pros 1.) footprint size nice and light in weight. 2.) nice sharp image every time you capture your subject. 3.) nice soft bokeh' but not to much to where looks fake as a filter 4.) nice smooth focus ring 5 ) a great portrait lens cons 1.) wait for it um.....yeah i dont think there is any you wont be disappointed at all

Best RF lens I own!!!
Instantly became my favorite lens. I’m primarily a wedding photographer and have all the other standard wedding RF lenses. Also have the RF 50mm 1.8. This has minuscule if any CA whereas I get a lot on the 1.8. The photos are sharper than any lens I own and the backgrounds are so dreamy. If shooting outdoors daytime wide open I recommend a good 3 stop ND filter to go along with it. Don’t skimp on the filter or you’ll lose clarity. This is my favorite lens of all time. 100% worth it.
