Are there two version of the RF 35mm f/1.2L USM coming? [CR1]

I guess it depends on your definition of consumer glass, but among all the lenses they've released I'd call the below ones consumer lenses, which together account for 40% of the RF lineup released to date.
RF 24-240
RF 35 f/1.8
RF 800MM f/11
RF 600mm f/11
RF 85 f/2
RF 24-105 f/4-7.1
Obviously they're missing the f/4 trinity, but I'm not sure I'd suggest Canon is neglecting consumer glass, no more than big white super-tele's anyway.

I would be shocked if BSRO wasn't included in the RF 35/1.2 L, since it was innovated for the EF 35/1.4 L II.
Then again, like you say, it is missing from the RF 50/1.2 L. Hmm.

I'm curious are these DS lens backgrounds any more 'dreamy' than the old EF equivalent? I guess there is only one direct comparison the 85 1.2 L But I'd bet the old EF 50 1.2 L would be hard to beat. How about instead of DS an updated double gauss 50L which would be nicely smaller too. Would that not have a wider appeal?

I'm hanging out for this 35mm f1.2 so bad... can't wait! Hopefully it comes in 2021

I’m having a problem here, and I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced it. When trying to go to another page in the forum, I get the Wikipedia page on internet trolls instead. This has happened for several days.
it doesn’t happen when going to a story, just a new page in the forum. Only on this site.

Não acho "Defocus Smoothing" atraente. É muito melhor não perder 1,3 pontos de luz para um efeito que eu posso facilmente fazer no post se eu quiser.
Acho que a próxima linha de RF precisa é

Acho que a próxima linha de RF precisa é
- Uma lente macro com 1: 1 ou até maior do que a ampliação em tamanho real com AF (para esse fator de surpresa)
- Um substituto para o EF135 / 2L, já que não é atualizado há algum tempo.
- 35mm rápido
- Então, talvez, lentes brancas longas e rápidas para esportes profissionais e vida selvagem.

I'm keeping my EF primes for the time being so I can use the filter adapters with them on my R5. So if I did get an RF prime, it would be the DS version.

Hoping it’s a RF 35 1.4 non DS, smaller size and priced similar to ef 35 1.4. But I know that won’t happen and it’ll be a 35 f1.2 and close to 2k 
Still don’t are about DS just want the normal version. Anyone heard anything from Sigma about development on the RF glass ?

Ugh, a 1.2?! Who wants to carry these bricks? It's going to be 1,000 grams (face in palms, shaking back and forth)

That's the tradeoff of these apodization designs but it will have f/1.2 diffraction discs shaped to a gentle falloff - by the apodization design. And keeping T/2 at shutter speeds of 1/50 /180° needs those gray filters too in a lot of lighting conditions.

The EF 50 1.2 is a rather old and relatively simple design (not bashing that lens, there were likely reasons why they did it like that). The EF 35 1.4 II is a newer, significantly more complex and also very well corrected design. There's no comparable 50 mm lens in the EF lineup as that generation has been skipped by Canon, maybe because the RF 50 was already in the pipeline.
Therefore I don't think that the EF <-> RF resolution comparison for the 50 mm lenses can simply be carried over to the 35 mm lenses. And while primes will likely leave more room for improvements than zooms, we've seen with the 2.8 RF zooms that while there were improvements in resolution and optical quality in general, those improvements weren't huge. The latest EF zoom designs were already very good in terms of technical qualities.

Retro focus lens designs are generally used for SLR focal lengths less than 35mm. However, mirrorless designs still have a mount flange, so for ultra wides, a retro fcosu design may still be required. Canon could easily have created an ef 50mm f1.2 L that matched the RF 50mm f1.2 L optics but chose not too. The Zeiss Otus 50mm f1.4 and Sigma Art 50mm F1.4 are good examples of other brands fullfilling that particular brief. The EF 50mm f1.2 L isn't a retrofocus design, it's just one that was compromised for the need to be small, compact, bright and relatively cheap to build (Canon was going through a strange design phase at the time). It's easily the weakest L prime in the EF range.
An EF 35mm f1.4 doesn't need to have a retro focus design. So the assumption that a newer RF 35mm f1.4 would be optically superior could only point to a newer and superior design that has little to do with mount (EF vs RF). I think there would be more optical gains for an ultra wide zoom or a 24mm f1.4 on the RF mount. However, I've never found the ef 24mm f1.4 or 35mm f1.4 lacking optically. Maybe in a 50+mp world results will be different. But for wide open lenses...bokeh and rendering is king and not absolute sharpness. Stop down a few stops and most of the EF lenses are sharper than most zooms.
