Re: Struggling between RF USM and STM lineup as an amateur

My wife was very happy with zooming, etc. I found myself sticking to 50mm almost whole time, as if I wanted to prove myself that RF 50mm F1.2 would also be a good choice. On one hand, I know that I can still buy this superior prime lens, now or in the future. Choosing RF 24-70mm F2.8 over RF 24-105 F4.0 had me thinking, that then there will be less stops difference to the prime (F2.8 => F1.2, instead of F4.0 => F1.2). It this a false attitude? And having bought RF 24-70mm F2.8 didn't render RF 50mm F1.2 less worthy to add in the future? It's more of attitude problem, so I would be happy to read your insight.
