Re: how good is the RF 50 1.8 STM ?

For the RF mount, I like having the 35 f/1.8 and the 85 f/2 for my primes. I also have the 16 f/2.8 for the occasional travel ultra-wide. I feel no draw toward the 50 f/1.8.

Helps that my wife has the M6II and the EF-M 32 f/1.4, which is an exceptional lens for the same field of view.

If you need a 50, one could argue the 50 f/1.8 is the best value in the RF system.
