I am very happy with this lens, its not the most awesome lens ever but its a good lens for my needs It covers more range than a RF 70-200 + RF 24-105 when used with my RF 14-35. Its not as sharp was my RF 70-200 f4 but its good enough and I am happy with it. I dont like to carry a bunch of lens's for a walk about but 2 is great

I hear great things about this lens. But the show stopper for me is you have to use LR or DPP 4 to correct the crazy distortions on the wide end. I shoot RAW so in camera corrections does not apply in RAW.

I use Capture One Pro for most post and maybe Affinity Photo when I need Photoshop type of editing. Anyhow C1 doesn't support that lens.
