what do you mean by intermittent AF issues? and how can you tell how old the lens is by the serial?
It misses the focus in instances when it shouldn't, and it's happened multiple times (i.e. non-challenging scenarios where my 1D4/5D4 and EF 70-200 2.8 IS II always hit). But I haven't used the RF (nor the R5) enough to rule out anything yet, which is why I just want to determine if the lens I got was possibly flawed/a return. If a few other people recently got RF 70-200s that were produced last year, that would ease my mind a bit

The R5 does not have any cross type AF points so there are some scenarios where the R5 will not find focus that the DSLRs would. Could it be that these situations only have contrast in one direction?
