I think the RF 35mm f/1.8 IS stm is okayish. But there's nothing like the FE 50mm f/1.4 GM @516 grams, Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DN @630 grams. Add a 200 grams 28mm f/2.0 and you're good to go. No need for an f/1.2 prime vs f/2.0 zoom discussion.

I own and use the 35/1.8 Rf and agree, its okays but not more.

I thought we are talking about lenses working on a Canon RF body, right?

Well, you're pretty selectively quoting here, as I was reacting on a contribution stating the lack of more compact f/1.4 options is a problem for the RF-mount. To evaluate the completeness of a system it never hurts to compare it to another system.

So a Sony lens doesn't help here

If you buy a Sony body next to your RF body it helps a lot if you want bright yet portable lenses.

that's an option. But I don't like Sony user interface and I already own too much gear.

For compact and fast lenses I use Leica, but I still hope some "in between"high quality  f1.4-1.8 lenses from Canon RF.
