I don't like it either. You are not alone.I might be alone but I’m not a fan of the bokeh on the DS lens. Maybe because it looks like the artificial bokeh on camera phones

Thanks for this. I completely missed the post. I hope it gets produced. This is a dream zoom for me. Happy, happy, happy!You may get your wish at some point, Canon already has patent applications for f2 portrait zooms
Patent: Full frame f/2 zoom, possibly for mirrorless?
A patent application showing an unusual f/2 zoom from Canon has appeared in Japan (Patent application: 2018-132675). It's possible that this zoom lens is relawww.canonrumors.com
Wow! You're selling your EF 70-200 IS II; that really shows commitment to the new R mount!
I'm not that bold; I have the EOS R, the 5D Mark IV and the 1DX and also the same lens, EF 70-200 IS II but I don't have the guts to sell it...
I have no doubt they've thought of it, but it's a concern I've heard raised many times though I've never experienced it. I was more curious if anyone had first hand experience with a telescoping lens actually being damaged due to drawing something into the lens barrel that didn't belong there, considering that I've never heard of an example where it actually happened.Let's trust in Canon engineering. I'm sure they have thought of that fact that particles of dust or water vapor can be sucked into their premier telephoto zoom.
Must have appalling focus breathing to only be 0.23x @ 0.7m, old lens does 0.25x @ 1.2m, this must be close to 100mm at mfd.
Only thing that's good is weight reduction. To see an 85 f/1.2 heavier than a 70-200 f/2.8 shows we've entered a parallel universe
Sorry but it goes the other way around.I don't like the way extending lenses look. Just seems cheap, like a less expensive design method or cheaper engineering.
Actually the old lens focus breathes the opposite direction and is 270mm at minimum focus distance. So this lens is probably closer to 200 than it looks on paper.
So it's like the first version of the 24-70mm EF where all that extension is hidden inside the lens hood.
yeah, it is not for everyone. however I showed the RF 85 DS vs RF 85 sample photo to 10 "non-photographers" and it seems that 85 DS look wins at ratio 9:1 thoughI don't like it either. You are not alone.
If they do that. I would never use primes again for photos.Thanks for this. I completely missed the post. I hope it gets produced. This is a dream zoom for me. Happy, happy, happy!

However, with one out of ten concluded that the image was photoshopped to further blur the background
I am personally would go for the DS. stopped down, it would act like a normal lens but a bit slower by 1.5 stops approx. That's what, T2.0?
I see an opportunity for Artistic souls here. buduar, nude, portraiture and studio.
