The RF 28-70 f2 is my workhorse lens. Been using it for now over a year and absolutely love the lens; it stays on my camera 80-90% of the time. Renders images like a prime lens but with the flexibility of a zoom!
I couldn't agree more! It has been the biggest game changer for my business in the last few months of using it - I'm forever thankful for Canon releasing it! Thanks for watching!
Oh that's a nice combo I might try out next time. I do family shoots and with kids running around being unpredictable so I've mostly stuck with the "boring" zoom set up of this lens and the 70-200. But I'm trying to find reasons to use my 85. Playing around with having a button switch back and forth with crop mode on the R5 has made the idea more appealing.
Hy. Very nice video. I bought this lens about a month ago after watching this :) I am not a wedding photographer, but still this is a lens that stays almost all the time on my camera, for everything from street, nightime, portraits, landscapes, architecture, you name it. And I have a lot of lenses, but this one is amazing. Good luck with the channel and your work!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad to hear you're enjoying this lens. It really is a great one! It is so versatile for all types of photographers. Thank you so much for watching!
Awesome review! I love this lens. Recently I made a video about this lens and how it works with product photos. Watching this video makes me regret not speaking about the overall weight of the lens. Keep up the excellent work! I'm about to binge your stuff. All the best,
Thank you so much! I just saw your video, and you did a great job as well! It is such a great lens for product photography as well, and I love that you hit home that idea of how versatile it is. It's always great to connect with another 28-70 fan! :)
I’m renting one of these this upcoming weekend for a wedding. I can’t wait to try it! I’ve heard so much hype about how awesome this lens is for weddings. Yeah … excited.
You'll have to let me know how you like it! It's such a great lens, and I hope you'll be just as excited about the flexibility of it! Thanks for watching!
@@HustlHub.Community I LOVED it! In fact I loved it so much I bought one and it is on my R5 most of the time. This lens is my go-to. I use my second camera body (R8) for the extras like my macro lens and either my 85mm or 70-200. The 28-70 is awesome!
I’m a Sony shooter but that’s one of the lenses I’m very jealous of 🤣🤣🤣 It looks like an amazing lens, love to try it out one day. The Tamron 28-75 2.8 is my workhorse lens although the 35-150 is very tempting. Looks like it’d be great for weddings. Would you try that if they brought it to Canon?
28-75 sounds like an incredible focal length! The 35-150 focal length would be really tempting as well! For me it usually depends on how low I can go on aperture when it comes to weddings, but I'm always excited to try new focal lengths and lenses! Thanks for watching 🙂
Allie you put all the guys to shame that complain “it’s too heavy”😂 so many comments from “men” saying they sold this lens because it’s too heavy. I found the only 28-70 left in Australia at that time, I called every major camera store and found one 2500km away in another state where my daughter lives, she flew up a few days later with it. My wife is a skinny girl and shoots weddings with it. It is hands down the best lens ever made.
Haha thanks Steve! I'm so glad to hear that other people share the love for that lens because it truly is such an outstanding lens! Until the next best thing, this will be my go to lens! 😊
I really want to get that lens.... I'm just starting as a photographer but you know waiting to buy it, is like waiting for Christmas....Great Videos by the way
It's such a great lens, and it's something you can definitely work toward! It truly feels like Christmas when you get a new piece of equipment and that feeling never goes away. Thank you for watching!
It's such a great one! I currently do not have a filter on it, but I plan on getting the 95mm protective filter when it is back in stock! Thanks for watching! :)
I completely understand! The heaviness is one of the biggest downfalls with this lens for sure. I've heard great things about the q2 and can't wait to give it a test run! R5 and 50 is also always a great pair 👏🏻 thanks for watching!

Great lens. I use it a lot for concert photography. Yes, it is heavy and expensive… but the image quality is amazing!
I use this lens at weddings along with my 85mm, they’re a fantastic combination 🤣
Great real life review of the RF 28-70 f/2 L USM 👏
I'm sure it is a perfect pairing with the 85! That is such a great focal length! Thank you so much for watching! :)

@@gerrya2133 Yes you'll for sure have to let me know how you like the 85 pairing! It seems like it would be a great set up!
I been use the 28 70 2.0 for the 5 months , I absolutely love it! Is the best lens in the market
I couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching!
@@alliechambersphoto thank you! I love you Review. ☺👌

Nice review. Subscribed. If you were in LA we could work and learn
Thank you so much! Hopefully we'll cross paths at some point!
Love that lens, it's on my camera 90% of the time. One question, do you use a filter on it to protect it
?
It's such a great one! I currently do not have a filter on it, but I plan on getting the 95mm protective filter when it is back in stock! Thanks for watching! :)
i love this lens, but it is just soo heavy for a full day. at the moment i am using the q2 and the r5 with the 50.
I completely understand! The heaviness is one of the biggest downfalls with this lens for sure. I've heard great things about the q2 and can't wait to give it a test run! R5 and 50 is also always a great pair 👏🏻 thanks for watching!
It's better to show some shots in broll with this lens rather than talk 👄 the whole video.
