    • An huge upgrade from the predecessors!
I've own several Canon 85mm throughout my days of shooting. 85mm 1.2 II EF was my go to lens. I've shot so much on that lens that I would carry it with me to all my shoots. However the 85mm 1.2 EF version did not come without any problems. The focusing speed was dreadfully slow, the purple fringing were BAD and at 1.2 the corner sharpness will fall off drastically. Upgrading to this version, the RF 85mm 1.2, all of that problems have been fixed. The lens now focus much much faster, not 28-70 f2 fast but noticeably faster than the predecessor. You can actually shoot moving subject with it much better now and with the new element they added to control fringing, the purple fringing are gone! The lens is tack sharp from center to corner. People who said they cant justify the price difference to upgrade to this lens either 1) havent shot with this lens or 2) the work they do cant justify the price difference. For me, this is an all around worthy upgrade. The only thing thats missing on this lens that would make it the perfect lens is Image Stabilizer. That would have have made this lens perfect! The lens is not cheap, but the photo quality it brings is also very good. It has a control ring which most of the Canon RF lenses have now, you can customize it however you like. If I try to find something to complain about this lens, it would have to be the build material. The plastic built doesnt feel great to me compare to the EF version, but at the same time the EF version used a rubbery materials that can degrade and deteriorate over time as well (happened to me). So I guess with a plastic built I wont have this issue anymore, but I cant help to think that Canon could have really make it feel a whole lot better than this. This is just me being picky though, overall, this is still a great lens to have, and for 85mm shooters, this is a must upgrade in my opinion. ... show more

    • The best of the best at 85mm
One thing I've learned in all my years of photography: There are no free lunches. This lens reminds me of this fact every time I use it. I primarily use this lens to produce the best portraits all the way to 1.2. It's tack sharp, contrasty, with gorgeous bokeh and isolation. This lens is what all other 85's want to be when they grow up! There are tons of incredible glass out there, but if you want the best at 85mm, this is the one to get. The pain in your wallet at purchase will soon fade after the first shutter press. ... show more

I absolutely love this lens. It is super high quality, built well. The autofocus and manual focus is very easy to use. And it’s very simple to use. Just pop and twist it onto your rig and you’re ready to go!

    • Beast mode
What can you say its the ultimate portrait lens, I have a full frame camera, in most cases its not needed but if it was about $1k cheaper or had stability mode I'd give it 5 stars. its expensive. if you want your backrounds to melt away this is the way to go. its the primary lens on my camera, clarity is so spectacular cropping images is no issue. Its heavy but after a week of one handed use you'll build some muscle and its not bad, comes with a hood that can attach backwards for storage but blocks the focus ring. if you have the funds and want the gold bar of portrait lenses get it! ... show more

I am an intermediate photographer/cinematographer so I have used my fair share of glass for photo and video in the last 5 years or so. This is hands down the sharpest and most balanced lens I have ever used. It maintains sharpness when you stop down even all the way at 1.2! If you are going for that creamy background blur/bokeh this lens holds the throne. Not to mention the amazing low light capabilities. I wish the blackmagic 4k and 6k were RF mounts because I film on those mostly and it would’ve been perfect to pair with this RF system but shooting video on my Canon RP with this lens is a game changer. The combination of these RF lens and the color science of canon are a match made in heaven. I cannot recommend this enough. I have my eyes on the RF 70-200 2.8 next! If photography is just a hobby I cannot out of good conscience, suggest this lens because it is a PRETTY penny. But I can confidently say it is WORTH every penny. I am hoping blackmagic comes out with a camera in the next few years that will adapt the RF mount because I would love to put this glass on that system. But for photography this lens is and will be difficult to top! ... show more

    • Exceptional focus hit-rate
I have the EF 85 1.2, the EF 85 1.4, and now the RF 85 1.2. Obviously I like that focal range. Of the 3, the RF focuses the fastest and is the most consistently sharp or in-focus. Also the R5 and R6 ibis works the best with this lens. It’s big and heavy, as all 3 are. The autofocus of the R5 enables eye-focus which helps a lot with swaying back in forth, a common problem with focus-recompose methods. I don’t see how anyone could be disappointed with this lens. It is even good for many action applications due to its improved focus speed. ... show more
