I’d be shocked if they didn’t AF on the R and RP.

Did I hear in the video that they have a fixed f/11 aperture? Like you can’t change the aperture??

Canon's official product page is very blunt about the aperture being fixed at F11.

It is a surprising choice, but then again, weren't you upset about the fact that F11 was too slow? If that's the case, lacking the ability to stop down even further than that shouldn't be a concern in actual use.
