I have both, I am sure others do too. it does great vs. 85 1.2L. different lenses of course but it's sharp wide open generally, like the 85/1.2
the 58 is the 50L that canon *should* have made.

I have the EOS 85L. The Rokkor holds itīs own. It is a lot smaller and lighter though.
rokkor serves sometimes as a wildlife lens - recent shot from ZOO
at f1.2 aperture, background is isolated pretty well (much more than it showed in viewfinder)
Well I hate to admit it but my rokkor gets too little use. I have been thinking about selling it but I just canīt. Glad I have not. I will never sell it!
Took it with me to work today and shot the cherry blossom. It rocked! I will post later.
Haven't been using my Rokkor 58 much lately but that's what happens when you have quite a few alts to choose between. Plus I tend to shoot with my newest lens a lot.
I will never sell my two Rokkor 58's either.
i sold my 5d, and went with m43. but still have the rokkor, can't decide if i will ever pick up an FF camera later down the road or if i should sell my rokkor . the rokkor is the only thing i have left pertaining to FF camera.

Yes, I have used it to "erase" fences like this too. Nice shot!
