Finally, I sold my 3 of my EF lenses: EF 50 1.2, 16-35 2.8 V1, 70-300 DO;

and got RF 50 (USD872) & 15-35 (USD1288) Impulsively get 15-35, only some research on YouTube has shown that works well.

RF 50 really crazy sharp!

Feeling really get what I paid.

Say goodbye to EF 50 1.2, color and the bokeh I love, but focus shift (@DSLR), soft, CA really bother me.

How were the prices so cheap for those lenses you bought?

Thought it was weird too. But perhaps he is listing the differences (what he spent minus what he made from selling), and he also mentioned grey market.

I thought it might be a price difference as well. Missed the grey market comment I guess. Thanks
