    Cons. It’s ok for $300 but you definitely get what you pay for. Let’s put it this way. If you buy it cheap you buy it twice. It’s got almost fisheye lens distortion, even after corrections in Lightroom it’s soft and warped at the edges of the frame. Pros. It’s a lens.

    You spend quite a bit of money to upgrade to a Canon RF camera. This lens does not meet the standards of the camera. The 24mm setting on my 24-105mm lens will probably be better for every situation.

    So far a bust, out of the box the focus motor was malfunctioning and gave my R6 an error. Bought in store, and returned, they’re shipping me a replacement. Fingers crossed that one works.

    Awesome lens! Such a small and compact lens at a great price, wish it was weather sealed but that’s okay still love it!

    A very powerful lens that helps me capture everything I’m my range. The focus is really sharp and also good for auto focusing and focus tracking
