85mm f1.8 is a keeper

I am definitely going to keep my EF 100mm f2, essentially same size and performance as your 85mm f1.8. It keeps the size and weight in place even with the adapter, AF is fast and the image quality is great.

For budget reasons I'll have to keep my Sigma 12-24 and canon 70-200 f2.8 IS, and I also have a Sigma 50mm f1.4 (non Art) that has noisy AF and has problems when setting auto exposure to full sensor, but it's optically better than the RF 50mm f1.8 so I'm going to stick to that for a while. You may want to check a comparison with your canon f1.4 and the RF 1.8 (if the RF 1.2 is not an option for you).

I just sold my EF 24-105 f4 to buy the RF equivalent, that's definitely the first RF lens I should mount since it's the most used and better in almost every aspect than my old trusty one. An RF 16mm f2.8 might follow.
