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.
Congrats on your purchase! I too just bought the R6 Mark II and the 24-70 2.8 and 70-200 2.8. It’s an amazing kit!
I also just received the 35mm 1.8 prime lens and I cannot believe the IQ and the lightweight combo it makes. Having the camera with that lens around my neck and I can barely feel it.
What awesome times we live in!
Hello, I am happy that we bought it simultaneously, congratulations!
I have yet another question. I have two unlocked memory cards set to write at the same time. I also have Raw + JPEG. I have erased few photos on the camera, but they still appear on the memory cards while I transfer them to my laptop. How is it possible and how can I really erase them on my camera, so that I don't have to do it on my laptop? Is this a kind of quirk?
And one more thing. I tried to make a selfie of us two. This lens is too big for this. Which prime would you recommend for those handheld selfies? š So that we won't look too distorted? 35mm? 24mm? Any thoughts?
