Hello,
i would like to know if anybody here ever tried a Canon 180mm f3.5 macro on a R5 or R6?
If so, how did the AF behave?
thanks for helping

I've tried it on an R5 and AF is precise, but glacial as ever :/ The IBIS gives me more keepers, but is very weak for my usage. The 180mm shines in crop mode, so easy to get 'close' to things while staying far away

thank you for your answer, can you please explain (as english is not my first language) "AF is precise, but glacial as ever :/ The IBIS gives me more keepers, but is very weak for my usage. " thanks

It focuses well, but is a slow focusing lens (speed-wise). Mine is the same way, it works great but is slow to focus compared to more modern lenses.
