Rumors RF 35mm f/1.4L USM

[Kamoshika]

Apparently, this lens will be announced next month with the R5M2 and the R1. I've been mulling over buying the RF35mm F1.8 マクロ IS STM for some time now, but now I think I'll wait to see how much this new one will set me back.

I bet it’s around US $2500. I’d wager higher before lower. I really like 35mm. It’s a great focal length. Pair it with an 85 and that’s a nice portrait kit. Although a 50 works too when you zoom with your feet. That 1.4 / 1.2 line up is strong and pricey. I think if I was buying one of them it would be the 50.

I have the non L 50 and 85 and they’re both stellar. I think most people would be hard pressed to tell the images produced with the non L RF primes from the L primes. I’ve heard nothing but good about the 35 STM. Some people say the auto focus on the 85 is slow but that hasn’t been my experience. I’d say all my STMs are fractionally slower than my USMs. My RF 70-200 F4 L is blazing fast, I will give it that. Faster than my EF 16-35 USM.
