Review: Heavy on the wallet and back but the images are incredible! - I've only had it out for a day but I can already see this lens being a regular on my R5 and R6 bodies. The lens is heavy, no doubt about it, but the IQ is insane and well worth it. It is very fast focusing and produces beautiful colors. The images I posted as examples are on a low light day in a forest, the exception being my girls out in the open once we finished. This tank feels great in the hand while shooting and it has to give me at least a full stop of additional stabilization due to the weight. Great lens, absolutely amazing IQ, I just wish it was a bit cheaper, lol. If you can afford this lens and will use it, do not hesitate for a second, it is the best feeling lens that I've ever been out shooting with to date.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this covered by usa canon warranty and eligible for service and repair by canon usa, as one answer says not authorized dealer?**
A: Also, for extra fun, this gray market lens is over-priced by a nearly 70% mark-up by Amazon themselves (integrity much?) Canon direct's website sells it for $2999, although the thing is on back-order until rapture, but they won't gouge you.

**Q: Anyone compared this wide open at f2.0 against the 24-70mm wide open at f2.8 for sharpness across the frame? Thanks.**
A: I have read reviews on Canon Rumors with this information. There is more to lense quality than sharpness across the frame. Think about aromatic aberrations, lens flare, and a multitude of other aspects of lens that combine to make a great lens. If you are concerned about the best of the best just go to primes. The RF 50 f1.2 will give you the best of the best, yet you have to zoom with your feet.

**Q: I'm considering this as a second camera for indoor sports (e.g. basketball).  how fast is the tracking and autofocus compared?  my body is an r6.**
A: Completely wrong lens for your use. Low light consider the RF 70-200 f/2.8, more light consider the f/4.0. If your serious about sport photography consider the R3 body.

**Q: Is there any tripod mount for other lenses that can be adapted for this so that it will be better balanced on a lightweight tripod and small ballhead?**
A: Yes there are, this one for example from amazon https://www.amazon.com/iShoot-Compatible-28-70mm-Support-Arca-Swiss/dp/B08L4XK8WT/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=canon+28-70+tripod+ring&qid=1632363814&sr=8-4

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unbelievably great lens
*by J***N on March 31, 2019*

Yes, this lens is an expensive, it is big, it is heavy BUT: It is worth the cost, the size and the weight. The pictures are unbelievable. I'm not sure what Canon has done with this lens, there are a lot of elements, and I would think there would be significant light loss through them, but there is not. Also, I've read that the sensor in the EOS R is the same one as the 5D mark IV. yet the images I get on the EOS R with the native RF lens are much sharper, with more detail, better colors, etc than I get on the 5D Mark IV. For years I have taken pictures. I've let my subject judge if the picture was good or not. With this lens I'm changing gears. I'm taking into account the gestalt of the entire photo. The bokeh is smother than any other lens I have used. The subject just pops out of the photo and the background can now be used to enhance the entire photo. This lens has set a new standard in image quality and resolving power. It seems that Canon has gone back to basic physics and they are taking advantage of the close proximity between the lens and the sensor.
