    Why not buy a cheap Sony body just for that one lens? Since bodies don't matter, anyway? Keep your Canon gear for all your other use...
  • Michael Clark
    Yeah, it's ALL about sticking it to those Sony fanboys, isn't it? It has nothing to do with actually going out and taking well...

    I think you are right in that the hood won't move. Just double checked my rf 100-400 and Canon marks it differently for hood alignment...

    If you send the lens to Canon for service be sure to include a detailed description of the problem and example images that demonstrate...

    Whereas I wouldn't have got the 35 (or maybe even the 16) if they didn't allow reasonably close focus.
  • Michael Clark
    That could be the IS. IS works by intentionally tilting the IS group. If one of the plastic tabs that hold the IS stationary when not...

    Canon makes more profit per unit on the R6, R5, and R1 series than on APS-C models. Why would Canon not want that? But that's a...

    Everything Canon has done since 2018 points towards a more premium market. They even state it in their annual reports. Example: The...

    It's a shame but it could be because of battery drain.

    There's more to a camera than the sensor. At least there is for someone who actually uses cameras to take pictures with them.

    6D First DSLR including a GPS and then 5DmkIV. After R5 family, R6 serie always no GPS on board…

    Exactly! I always hope for at least designs like this! It's poor man's internal focus, but at least it can be shut, so there's no water...

    This still looks much better than the existing 35mm and other lenses because can "seal" the lens with a filter.
  • m4ndr4ke
    Do you mean red? That would move the lens hood as well, but this is not a lens hood that attaches to the filter thread, like they...

    Very happy to see that they are still around despite the late season. Nice pictures, Maximilian.

    One year ago, while owning 2 R6II, I had excitement for the III, with rumors claiming it had the R3 stacked sensor and so much more. I...

    $469 for the 45mm is fantastic, I might just try it for fun
  • mxwphoto
    It does not look like internal focusing. Filter thread and lens hood attach on same barrel, but see the gap after hood bayonet between...

    35 stm - 74,4 x 62,8 mm 50 stm - 69,2 x 40,5 mm

    The 50 STM is almost half the size of the 35 STM, so I would say this 45 is almost three times as big as the 50

    There's already a R8 with all those features...it's called R6II 🙃 Canon has always been surgical in keeping market segmentation, the...
  • Exploreshootshare
    True, otherwise we would have the RP and the R line :)
  • m4ndr4ke
    And now we know roughly what size the 35mm could have been if they ditched the macro abilities and gave it basic internal focusing, like...
  • candyman
    The RF 45 looks like almost double the size of the RF 50mm f/1.8 STM. But still quite limited in size. And also good for streetphotography.
