I purchased this lens in August of 2024 for my Canon R6M2. I'm happy with the lens overall as it produces good quality images. My only complaint is the time it sometimes takes to focus but as a person that mainly takes landscape photos, it's an issue I can live with. I'm attaching a couple of photos taken with the RF85 F2 for reference.

Loved my f 1.8, FD version back in the 70s. Love this RF version on my RP today. Image stabilization is my friend for sharp hand-held shots. Bokeh is beautiful. Close focusing distance is amazingly helpful. Compact size and weight are also beneficial.

I bought this lens to use it as a hybrid solution for wedding photographs and video. Found out through use and several test that canon significantly slows down the autofocus on this lens when in video mode. It to the point to where it's useless even for a hobbyist I'm a controlled environment. I can use the lens for half of the uses I had planned for it. I'm returning it ASAP. It's is not worth your hard earned money. I'm really contemplating staying with the canon ecosystem if they're going to take advantage of their customers for lack of innovation and forcefully push the market to spend more on lenses features that brands like Sony offers for affordable prices.
