Pros:Lightweight, excellent rendering both in color and definition, very good stabilization and manual MAF.
Cons:I would say nothing, you notice a natural flare against the light; useless to complain about the price, come on, it's an RF - L.
Opinion:Recently purchased from RCE Torino - very good - with a much more than satisfactory evaluation of my used car: I come from the Tamron 15-30mm f/2.8 VC USD that I loved absolutely, but both for the weight it had, and for its overall size combined with the adapter for EF mount I preferred to streamline weights and bulk. With the R3 it goes to god. Well balanced, fast and precise AF, adapts to the camera body with a brush, very balanced, compact the right amount and always falls well. The colors are right, beautiful, natural, the definition (on the screen, reviewing on the PC) is clearly visible, imperceptible stabilization but always present and effective. At full aperture it has excellent detail in the focus area and a beautiful, pleasant, truly satisfying blur. I notice a fair amount of flare, but I took those images with strong sun almost frontal shielded by some low clouds, so that's okay. The lens hood does what it can, on that side much better than the Tamron and its conformation of integrated lens hood, practical and really efficient (it was a Pentax project, in short... ). I like it very much: I would not have really chosen the 15-35 f.2.8, for the 600 euros more and having 1 mm less focal length and 4° lower field of view: the 14 is perfect for me. Great product, great satisfaction. Thinning out almost all the old EF mount lenses I discover the RF-L world and I am very happy about it.
Cons:L-series footprint, price, third bezel, vignetting.
Opinion:After a long time I finally find that familiar effect of the old L series, I would say that three-dimensionality, (despite f4), that reportage aspect if used in the street with people as a subject. Very good sharpness, only high vignetting. Otherwise it's really good. Bought used very good condition with Amazon second hand, the lens was perfect, no scratches, there was the canon leather bag and the lens hood. I have an eos rp and this lens was not compatible as it required firmware update. It's there because this lens is very recent and my old room from 2020. It had never happened to me before that Canon on Canon did not go without sw updates. Anyway tried and I must say that it is lighter than expected and, even if nice big, it is ergonomically perfect: it grips well because it starts tight and then gradually widens on the zoom ring, making it easier to grip. The stabilizer is stunning; You really can shoot at night despite the relatively low maximum aperture brightness. Took night photos with headlight trails at 1/30th of a second of course without a tripod. It has proven to be a reliable travel companion, also because it is tropicalized and therefore 4 drops of water do not bother him. One thing that doesn't come naturally to me is the third ring common to RF lenses, I never use it as it just creates unnecessary distractions. When using for long exposures at night or with ND filters, you have to remember to take off the stabilizer otherwise they will be moved, as it does not recognize the tripod as some more expensive lenses do. Nice light but stable the lens hood supplied, relatively expensive lens because if in 5 years it is sold I have found that an L series keeps its value high so excellent goods for exchange or renewal of your lens park.
Cons:Beyond the high price, if one knows what to buy I would say nothing
Opinion:Purchased a week ago to replace my beloved Zeiss Distagon 21mm from which I parted for reasons of practicality. I used the Zeiss always closed beyond f4 to maximize sharpness, exclusively for landscapes. I imagined it would have been hard to live memories of the splendid yield that had that goal, and instead I have to change my mind totally: moving to the RF now I finally have all the native RF lens park, so I removed the adapter that despite being excellent is still an extra piece, the weight even to say it is definitely in favor of the RF and the yield is incredible at all focal lengths, slightly less sharp at 35 but closing a hair returns to perform beautifully. It brings with it all the advantages of the RF L system (customizable ring and stabilization) and alas also the price, decidedly high for "an f4" but trust me, once mounted on an RF body it will become your reference landscape optics. Bringing me this lens on an excursion over (2000mt of positive difference in height) does not make me regret the 15-35 2.8 and absolutely not the Distagon.
Opinion:Used for 10 months now and on two "important" trips (Madeira and Iceland)... It is the perfect lens for a landscape painter who wants quality photos, without fainting too much with his wallet and without carrying an excessive weight on his shoulder. Apart from comparisons from fundamentalists, it produces images indistinguishable by eye from those of the big brother, which certainly on paper boasts a higher quality (in addition to the opening) but which also exceeds it in discomfort ... This one is compact and is a feather! A pleasure to leave it attached always and keep the camera by hand. Also had the grandfather EF 16-35 F4, which as yield was at the same level, but on the body of the R6 was too unbalanced and heavy, also having the adapter. In summary, never money better spent on a landscape optics.
Pros:Sharpness, weight, good flare resistance, good stabilizer.... nice wide angle
Cons:Nothing to report if not the price but on the other hand the improvements are paid .......
Opinion:Passing now almost definitively to RF technology, I hold on with my 1DX and I will never give up, I sold my now old but always excellent EF 17/40 L F4 USM to switch to 14/35 RF F4 ....... what to say there is no comparison, at F8-11 is splendid on the whole format, very sharp that does not regret the 15/35 2.8. Excellent weight that attached to the R3 seems to carry around a 2000D with 18/55 attached .... spectacular. The price is a bit high but the technology is paid and canon is certainly not the cheapest on the market, but dealing well with the store you can get a respectable discount that brings it back to earth!!!!!!!
