I have the RF 50mm f1.8 and its the least exciting RF lens that I own particularly for portraiture.
I had the RF 50mm f1.2L for three days in June and shot portraits with it both externally in a formal garden and inside an old country house.
The difference between the 1.8 & 1.2L lens is like night & day. The f1.2L lens has creamy, dreamy bokeh that you just dont get on the f1.8 lens. The f1.2L lens is way sharper but with a look thats made for portraiture.
No question its large, heavy & expensive but Pros doing weddings, family portraits etc the f1.2L is a no brainer to get.
I have the RF50 1.2 and RF50 1.8. The 1.8 was used exactly once and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless you really need the very cheapest option available. Meanwhile, the 1.2 is glued to my R5 and produces exceptional images. Amazing what one stop of light and $1.8k can do.
I'm a wedding photographer and this lens is pure magic!
Great review! Ive been looking at this lens for awhile and appreciate all the detailed tests you provided.
I am looking forward to the day I buy this one 😂
I got the Sigma Art 50 for my R6 II as it was 1/3 the price of the Canon. It's just as sharp (well 99% the same) as the RF version and focuses much faster, and it's smaller/lighter even with the EF adapter.
How do think it compares to the lumix 50mm 1.4. I know it's a totally different system, but was wondering how they compare image quality wise, since they're both huge no compromise on IQ lenses
Nice review! It's currently selling for $1899.00 in the U.S. But, even that is still expensive.
it is double the size due to the amount of glass it has. It is an RF L lens at a massive high aperture and normally the L RF lenses with high apertures tend to be compromised of way more glass than the rest of their counterparts. The 24-70 2.8 for instance is bigger than the 24-105 F4. despite the additional 35mm focal length It is wider and bulkier due to the amount of glass it has to have,. And the 28-70 f2.0 is even bigger than the 24-70 2.8 due to the same reason, it is massive. So, it does not surprise me that the 50 mm 1.2 looks how it does. 1.2 is a super fast aperture and the size makes sense, especially for RF L glass in the way they are built within the RF range for high aperture lenses. The 85 1.2 as well, massive. It is just how it goes in the RF range. I use this lens for almost 90% of my work. It is the best night lense especially for cinematic photos IMO.
Truly, If we are a photographer, that's for you, 50 1.2 is the best in image quality, it's better than 50 1.8. I am going to sell my sigma 85 1.4 art for the new 50 1.2 too. It 's the best focal length for wedding photographer too!
it hurt to buy, but i dont regret it
Actually the 50mm f 1.8 ef version is very sharp on my 33mp m6ii
Canon need a smaller, lighter & cheaper 50mm L lens, eg F1.4 or F1.8 asap
Expensive, yes but not one of the most expensive.
The RF 1200 f/8 costs 10 times more.
I'm sorry but it's pretty stupid to compare the weight of this lens with the rf 50mm f1.8 or the old EF 50mm lenses and to mark that as a negative 🤦🏼♀️I'm not sure what you're thinking making that analogy 🤷🏼♀️
