Sounds Like You Never Tried the RF 35mm Personally

It's a 'meh' lens. Nice, but has its issues. No better, no worse than other similar primes. Priced right at $450-$500 USD. I think many are overly excited about this lens at is the only one that is small and a good "fit" with the current R series bodies. Shame there are no decent R bodies - yet.

What other non-L wide/mid prime has these attributes?:

  1. Fairly sharp wide open.
  2. IS
  3. Nearly as good as Canon 35L f1.4 Mark I
  4. Very good edge-to-edge sharpness across all f-stops
  5. L like rendition
  6. L like bokeh
  7. It's better than the EF 50L in most cases

I've owned all the EF non-L wide/mid primes and this one stands out head and shoulders.

Decent R body? Any body that works with the RF 50L f1.2 and RF 28-70L f2 is a fantastic body.  Its the lenses, hello!?!?
