OMG, all possible lens choices are too good!

Isn't that the truth? I was quickly wiped out during the pandemic as far as gear goes. I haven't a single RF lens. On the positive side, I managed to hang on to my R body, Canon EF 135mm f\2L, Tamron 45mm, and dozens of very old M42 mount lenses.

I can add one new RF 'L' lens a year, starting next year. Yes, my R is old, but I haven't shot with it much and it takes wonderful still life and portrait photos. It's slow as heck, and an R6 Mark III is on the far horizon, but I want glass.

The RF 28-70mm f/2L is the obvious first choice for me. Then Canon releases that damned RF 24-105mm f/2.8L with internal focusing. #$@&!

My obvious second choice is the RF 85mm f/1.2L. Then the RF 50mm f/1.2L. Simple. Then Canon releases the VCM primes. UGH!!!!

It was far easier when there were a few known 'great' lenses for what the project required. It was easy to choose. Now, from where I'm sitting, we are very spoiled. Thank you Canon.

Indeed I'm also stuck for choosing my RF transtandard: buy the 28-70 f2.0, buy the 24-105 f2.8 or wait for a lighter or wider 28-70 f2.0 MK2 or a 24-70 f2.0. the Sony's f2.0 zoom prove us that it is a real possibility that canon will release them too, so for now I'm stuck in analysis paralysis...

And that's from someone that bought a R5 MK2 and currently shoot with an EF 24-105 f4.0 and EF prime lenses.

I had the 28-70 briefly. It is special.

I'm freaking out with all these amazing lenses to choose from. Getting back into Photography, I sold all my EF lenses along with my 5D Mark III. I purchased the new R6 Mark III along with the RF 24-70 2.8L and the RF 100 2.8L. I absolutely need the RF 70-200 2.8 L Z version. I'm having anxiety trying my best to wait till spring. Might be impossible.
