Review: Canon RF 85mm f/1.2L USM
Canon was the first lens maker to create an 85mm lens with a giant f/1.2 aperture, way back in 1976 with the release of the FD 85mm f/1.2 S.S.C. Aspherical. Since then, they’ve had an 85mm f/1.2 continuously in their stable, with the slightly revised FD 85mmf /1.2L, then the two revisions of the EF…

Review: Canon RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM
Canon has been busy churning out lenses for their full-frame RF mount, and this past fall released two interesting consumer-grade lenses. The first is the tiny ultra-wide 16mm f/2.8, which I reviewed recently and really enjoy. The second is the subject of today’s review, the Canon RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM. When this lens was…

Review: Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 STM
When the first details about the Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 STM leaked in 2021, the lens sounded intriguing: the RF system could certainly use a mid-range ultra-wide prime. When later leaks suggested that the lens would cost only $299 and would be the same size as the nifty-fifty RF 50mm f/1.8, I thought there was…

Canon RF 70-200mm f/4L IS vs. Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS
First off: this is not a review. This is a simple test under controlled conditions to evaluate image quality of these two compact L-series telephotos. A full review of the RF 70-200mm f/4L IS can be found here, while my review of the RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS can be found here. In November, Canon expanded…

Review: Canon RF 50mm f/1.2L USM
When Canon launched the RF mount mirrorless line of cameras and lenses, they released the system with an initial slate of four lenses. In a somewhat bold move, three of the lenses were core upper-end L-series professional lenses, including the RF 28-70mm f/2L, the RF 24-105mm f/4L, and this lens: the RF 50mm f/1.2L. Instead…
