Re: Canon 85mm RF f/1.2L without a doubt

I use the 85 1.14 for portraits and they look great. I took the attached portrait of my granddaughter with the R focusing on her eye. The image is cropped, but the edges were ok, although very out of focus due to the narrow depth of field. I also use the lens on my 5dsr and the new lens will not work on that camera. However, I would not spend the very significant extra money on the 1.2 lens as I do not think you will see that much difference in quality and I think you are giving up IS, requiring you to purchase the new, untested and expensive R5.

Very nicely done!
