I'm fed up there are no fast focusing well coated f/1.4 primes, and the 35mm f/1.8 and 85mm f/2.0 are crippled with sup par AF.  I'm perfectly fine with the price tags of the f/1.2 primes. But I hate the fact Canon cripples compact second best stuff, and at the same time doesn't allow Samyang to continue their RF 85mm f/1.4.

The old nasty Canon games are back, creating unnecessary gaps.  Aren't the RF f/1.2 lenses good enough by their own merits that they would need some glass genocide and crippling of second best options?

Such a childish way of doing business....
