Canon needs to put out consumer grade RF lenses if it wants to sell FF MILC cameras in any quantity. These $2k-$3k lenses are impressive but most people don't care about them or can afford them.
In your opinion, s it the "care about" or the "afford" that most drives the lack of interest?
I think it is more than my opinion. I think many people see these high priced lenses as an unnecessary and/or unaffordable luxury. It is like Ford selling the GT for $450,000 but when most people looking for a performance car will buy a $35,000 Mustang. The R is not a camera that will sell $2k-$3k lenses. It is a 6D2 equivalent camera and not many 6D2 owners will spend $10k on 3-4 lenses or even $2k on one lens.
Just like with the EF/EF-S system, the RF system will need to survive on consumer grade gear and most of it will be used on APS-C R cameras. I understand why Canon came out of the hole with two expensive lenses out of four and one medium class all purpose zoom. However, they need many more RF lenses like the 35mm in order for the R, and subsequent cameras, to sell in quantity.
I’m a 6DII owner with 7k in lenses, as well as willing to spend 3k on a lens.
