I am very impressed by the resolving power of the Canon 32/1.4 lens even wide open. Is the Sigma 56/1.4 equally resolving at equal apertures?

Pretty much yes I'd say as a former sigma 56mm owner and current 32mm owner.   Sold it only as I did not use it much and have the EFS 60 macro - miss f/1.4 though and is an absolutely cracking lens.

The 16mm sigma is very good too, but not quite up there wide open and is a lot bigger.  So sold that now I can use the 16mm RF lens on my R7 with IBIS and also on the R5.

32mm though is special and nothing remotely as good for the RF series at a sensible price point.
