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

Absolutely, but only used ones! If you need that EF 70-200 so bad you will easily be able to find a used lens. Then when the RF lens arrives you can sell it, maybe without losing any money if you're lucky.
