Guys, I'm sceptical. I Have an EOS R with RF50mm and some of EF lens like 85mm 1.2, 24-105, 100-400L etc. I want to buy the 70-200 2.8 so bad, but I don't think it's worth it because the RF line will arive this year. Would you still buy it ? And I'm thinking to buy the Ef 35mm 1.4 too. But again, why i'm buying EF lens if it's past! Damn, don't know what to do. The new lens will arive later this year. To muchh time

Good rules with electronics and gadgets are that if you need it now and can afford it, buy it now in the full knowledge that in a couple of months or years there will be a cheaper and better one. If you can do without it for now then wait until you really need it.  And renting, in the medium to long term, is much more expensive than buying.  If you don't really need it then it's not worth worrying about it.
