I was thinking of going tomorrow, but the lack of big Canon announcements has made me reconsider whether it's worth the Shinkansen ticket.

That RF Nokton 40 mm f1.2 looks interesting. ¥106,200 might be too steep for a MF only lens, though. Hmmm:unsure:

This year's Canon's booth was quite humble compared to the other brands . If you're spending 17 thousand yen just for CP+ , I don't think it's worth . If you want to bring your R6 and test drive the Nokton , it's a possibility . They didn't mind people using on their cameras . Solid metal alloy build . Smooth focusing ring . I'd say it's the same build quality that the Contax Zeiss lenses had . For portraits , I believe I would still prefer lenses with fast AF .
