Build and Ergonomics
Starting with the build, Canon doesn’t disappoint. The lens is constructed with high-quality materials that offer a premium, sturdy feel. The focus ring is exceptionally smooth, allowing for precise control. It’s compact and lightweight, which is a huge plus for those who travel or shoot for extended periods.
Image Quality
What truly stands out is the image quality this lens produces. The sharpness is exceptional, even wide open at f/1.8. The lens captures exquisite detail and delivers vibrant, true-to-life colors. The bokeh is buttery smooth, providing that professional look we all strive for in our photographs.
Macro Capability
The macro functionality is perhaps the most surprising and delightful feature. It opens up a whole new world of creative possibilities, from capturing the intricate details of a flower to intricate food photography. This is not just a lens; it’s a versatile tool for artistic expression.
Autofocus
The STM (Stepping Motor) technology ensures that autofocus is swift, silent, and accurate. Whether I’m shooting portraits, landscapes, or close-up macro shots, the focus has been reliably on point, contributing to a more efficient workflow.
Pros:
1. Stellar Image Quality: Exceptional sharpness, vibrant colors, and beautiful bokeh.
2. Macro Functionality: Adds a new layer of versatility and creativity.
3. Quick and Silent Autofocus: Efficient and unobtrusive, ideal for both photography and videography.
4. Compact and Lightweight: Easy to carry, making it a great travel companion.
5. Build Quality: Robust and premium, built to last.
Cons:
Honestly, it’s challenging to find any significant faults with this lens, which speaks volumes about its quality and performance.
Comparison
When compared to lenses like the Sigma 35mm f/1.4 Art DG HSM for Canon, the Canon RF35mm F1.8 offers the added advantage of macro capabilities and the benefits of the RF mount. While Sigma’s lens is excellent in its own right, the versatility and integration of the Canon lens make it a superior choice for those invested in the Canon ecosystem.
Usage Experience
I’ve used this lens extensively for various types of photography: portraits, landscapes, macro, and even some video work. It has performed exceptionally well across the board. From studio settings to outdoor environments, this lens has proven itself to be a reliable and high-performing piece of equipment.
Final Thoughts
The Canon RF35mm F1.8 is Macro STM Lens is a stellar piece of optical engineering, perfect for both professionals and hobbyists. It combines incredible image quality with versatile features like macro capability and fast, silent autofocus. It represents not just an incremental improvement, but a significant leap forward in what one can expect from a 35mm lens. If you’re in the market for a high-quality, versatile lens, this should be at the top of your list.
Thank you for taking the time to read this comprehensive review. I hope it provides the detailed insights you need to make an informed decision.
I have now owned this lens for over a year. It is on my full frame Canon camera more than any other lens I have ever owned, including L lenses, other prime lenses, zoom lenses, and third party lenses. The image stabilization works very well. Focal length is ideal for close portraiture. Lets in a ton of light. It is lightweight. Couldn’t ask for a better lens. I like this better than any L lens I have ever owned because it is portable and produces beautiful photos.
Trusty 50mm lens from Canon for the mirrorless body. Most affordable one. Just received it today (12/30/2020) and love it already. I have a Canon EOS RP, and with the lens, this is the most lightweight and portable setup I have ever had with a full frame camera.
Only have had the lens for a few hours but it looks very similar to the EF version (which I love) and seems to function great. Best lens for the price with the Canon mirrorless system.
The other RF lens I have is the 35mm F1.8 STM IS. Love that lens as well. It appears that both of these lenses focus well for both photo and video, and most importantly to me, they are both quiet for video. I use the RP for photography and family videography.
Highly recommended. Please keep making more affordable RF lenses, Canon. Thank you!
I started out just with the EOS RP and the 50mm RF lens, but realized very quickly that I needed a wider focal length, macro capability, and image stabilization. This lens delivers all of these features with excellence. That said, having it and using it also convinced me that I will need an 85mm eventually as well. I hope to eventually add the 85mm rf lens to my collection, which by my research would be even better for portraits, but the 35mm is still great if you're dealing with more than one person.
For those debating on getting a kit lens versus a lens like this prime 35mm rf or the prime 50mm rf lens, I strongly suggest you go with a prime lens first - though you lose the option of a variable focal length in a single lens, you gain a wider maximum aperture (f/1.8), and in this case, macro capability. Having both of these features in your first or second lens makes a HUGE difference.The limitations you have with a single focal length forces you to become a better photographer (thinking about composition, staging, making you more willing to learn how to use manual photography features), and besides, with a camera like the EOS RP you can always crop in closer when you have 26 megapixels to work with. Years ago I had a Canon Rebel T7i with a kit lens and eventually sold it. I recently compared the photos I took with that setup versus the ones I have taken with the EOS RP and the RF 35mm lens, and there is no contest. The 35mm prime on the RP beats anything I took with that other setup with a prime lens every time.
