RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM

Post your images takes with Canon's RF 70-200/2.8L. A welcome (for me) redesign of the excellent EF 70-200/2.8 lenses offering improved IQ in a smaller and lighter package. A 70-200/2.8 is an excellent lens for portraits and events, and for a wider view of night sports.

Here are a couple of my shots with the lens:

"Kickoff"

EOS R3, RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM @ 200mm, 1/1600 s, f/2.8, ISO 10000

"Strings"

EOS R3, RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM @ 200mm, 1/250 s, f/2.8, ISO 5000

With this lens, I often find myself at the long end shooting wide open with a high ISO and still cropping. Looking forward to receiving my 100-300/2.8 for the extra reach with the same f/2.8 aperture.

I had the privilege to shoot 18 holes (with a camera) of The Old Course at St Andrews with old friends and new friends at sunset. I'm not much of golfer, but those are hallowed grounds. It was certainly a nice stroll.

I understand this is an old thread…if the OP is around I’m curious how far away you were when you took these pictures.

Still here, lol. Both were shot with the 24 MP EOS R3. The football kickoff was shot from the stands, around 50 m / 160' away from the kicker, and the image is cropped to ~6 MP. The violinists were shot from my seat in the auditorium, probably about 18 m / 60' away from the front subject, and cropped to ~8 MP.
