• UPDATE



    The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being.

    I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure.

Fun and compact, wide-angle macro lenses like the RF 24/1.8 (using Canon's terminology, although it only achieves 0.5x magnification) have many uses, including food photography and close-up wide angle. Close-up uses aside, the RF 24/1.8 also works well as a wide prime for indoor use. It's compact and pairs very well with a small body like the R8. Here are a few shots to start the thread, from some subjects around the yard.
