Zoom Canon RF 70-200mm F2.8L IS USM

This is my main workhorse of a lens and I love it. It's very light weight (only around 2.3 lbs) lens. I've been able to hand-hold it for an event that lasted for hours with occasional breaks and not feel like it was too much.

It's an external zoom, which bothers some people but I like the compactness. It can't be used with any teleconverters and that definitely hurts. But other than that this is one of the absolute best lenses I've used.

I used to have a 70-200 f2.8 Mk I. This lens is in a different league for image quality and size/weight.

It is, dare I say it, small ...

It weighs a lot less than the older lens and can easily be carried as a walk around lens for a few hours without issue - I have done this and did not notice it.

The focus speed is great. The weight and size incredible for an f2.8 lens ... and the image quality even wide open simply stunning.

It is sooooo sharp ! Contrast great too.

I think of all the RF lenses I now have this is the best 'value' in terms of all it's attributes.

It balances well on an R5.

It is just a great lens., more than that is hard to explain .. try one and get one !
