No impressed by this lens. It hunts a lot on a R7 and AF is noisy, it's not good for video.

Interesting, I have one and haven't had the hunting problem. I don't usually do video, so I can't say much about that. It is noisy, though.
 
Yeah most reviews say that the RF 50mm f/1.8 is a lemon. Maybe there will be a better one down the road. i.e. 50mm f/1.4 USM. One that costs less than the f/1.2
 
I've only used mine on my Canon R and haven't had any issues with it hunting. I will have to mount it on my R7 this week when out and about. Never actually done video, just not my thing but I do recall reviews said the motor is a bit noisy.
