How does it perform on your RF body?
When you were evaluating f/1.8L @ 3kg or f/2.0L @ >2.5kg did you consider these 3rd party 2025 200mm f/2.0 lenses?
I'm asking as at the time of purchasing my 2008 EF 200mm f/2L IS USM a year after availability I considered the older 1988 EF 200mm f/1.8L USM but shied away from it due to weight, repairability & ergonomics.
Looking back I wish I picked up the EF 200mm f/1.8 L USM in 2003 when I bought my 1st dSLR the EOS 10D months after release.
I wonder... will the RF 200mm f/2L IS USM be out by 2028? I hope Canon differentiates it by releasing a faster than f/2.0L lens.
The lens has been amazing on my R6 ii (eventually to become an R5 ii)
Yes I mentioned earlier why I did not go with other options..mainly, the Sigma is not an option for Canon and I was not going back to Sony or a Nikon adapting Sony.
The Laowa all comparisons made me feel disappointed.
Plus after seeing the 2.0 vs 1.8 comparisons, I was sold on the Eye of Sauron..the .2 difference was indeed noticeable
Yes is a heavy beast but I can handle it...another motivation to hit the gym more often
A couple of unedited (only lifted the shadows on the clothing a little bit) photos with the beast.
this one has some "fun"editing lol
I got a lot more photos to check and edit then post. These were quick picks.
Looks like I need to sign up to Flickr to be able to post larger sizes unless someone has another suggestion. The tiny size, really diminishes the impact of what I am seeing in my monitor full size.
