Cons:Maybe not suitable for all tastes. It's not an L-series (FINALLY)
Opinion:Not to say.... a lens designed FINALLY for those who do not live from photography, but love to shoot and not snatch mega graphs and statistics.... With € 500 you can take home a fixed focal length with an extraordinary aperture. Let's get to the photo side.... I tested it in 2 events.... sports and portrait. It drove me crazy, I didn't feel the lack of zoom and that pinch of wide angle that you perceive I like and it excited me. Combined with the R6 mk2 it tracks the subject without problems and even at full aperture the shots are sharp and in focus.... On the video side it is fun and very light, unlike the 35mm 1.4 vlc, it does not have that annoying ring for the focus selector that sometimes you touch involuntarily. It doesn't have a lens hood it's true, but it's certainly available from third parties or easily 3d printed if someone wants. I recommend it to those like me who don't want to spend the madness of the 50 1.2 and not have a heavy fixed to carry in their backpack.
Pros:Perfectly balanced weight, excellent blur and detachment with the background at 1.2, excellent sharpness from 1.2, cheap
Cons:The standard lens hood is missing, but we already knew
Opinion:It is not always necessary to buy an L-series, even as a professional. Very happy, arrived today, tested and it is really the lens I was looking for last year when I bought the 50mm 1.4 L out of desperation, for heaven's sake beautiful, excellent performance, but the 1.4 is absolutely unbalanced! (Horrible is the new magnet focusing technology, which as soon as the camera is turned off the focus remains free and you feel the play of the piece inside oscillating.) In fact, resold the 1.4 and immediately bought the 45mm 1.2. Perfect, balanced in the camera, fast, sharp, comfortable to use in reportage, right weight and I already feel it an extension of my eye.
