Great Lens but big and bulky

Great lens! As a wedding photographer this lens really is versatile and I do love this lens. I have been using it for about 2 years now..the only thing...I wish it was not like 5 pounds it is so bulky and so heavy so after a whole wedding day shift my wrist does hurt. If Canon made this exact lens just smaller and less heavy, I would buy it in a heartbeat.

Great Lens Worth The Price

This was an easy purchase and this lens is 100% worth the costs. We have the R6 Mark II for this set up and it’s produces amazing quality shots. Really happy with the purchase and the process was very easy. Lens came quick and in great shape.

Great Lens for Event Photography

The RF 28-70mm F2 lens is a great lens for indoor photography without flash; however, it is simply too heavy and large to use for travel or walk around purposes. It is best used for event photography. Many Canon ambassadors claim it replaces several primes, but I don't agree. The lens is sharp for a zoom but my RF 50mm f1.2 prime lens is noticeably sharper. I returned the RF 28-70mm f2 lens after learning through Canon Rumors a replacement f2 lens that is wider (i.e., 24-70mm) and lighter may be announced soon.

Fatty, BUT Amazing!

I bought this lens in 2024. I have small hands, but I manage to handle it ok. It is on the heavier side, but the photos it produces are excellent! It is a great portrait lens, but Landscape shots are amazing! I would say GO TO A STORE so you can get a feel for it before purchasing. It's a fatty!! I considered sending it back, but I love the quality shots too much to do so. For a man, the size probably wouldn't bother you too much.

Prime in a zoom

Most will complain about how heavy it is and I think that depends on who's using it. I knew buying this lens that it would have some weight to it, especially if I plan on using it for long photographing session. The f/2 aperture of this lens paired with my R6 M III allows me to shoot in low light situations without having to crank up my ISO.

F2 sharpness worth the weight and control tradeoffs

Confirming what has already been said elsewhere. I'm using this lens paired with a R1 for mostly indoor sports photography (low-angle, under-the-net basketball shots). Lens is somewhat heavy, but not unexpected. Mass of lens doesn't throw off the center of balance significantly when paired with R1. Lens isn't overly heavy-- actively holding and zooming the lens for hours isn't a problem. For zooming, one would prefer the focus and zoom rings positions be swapped; however, the configuration is sufficient as is. Also, one would want to adjust the resistance on the zoom ring; however, the single built-in resistance is a decent balance between rapid and fine adjustments. The F2 is a world of difference between F2.8 and F4, particularly given the poor and high-contrast lighting conditions where I mostly use the lens.
