How does the Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 IS Macro STM lens stand out This compact and lightweight lens is a unique blend of a wide-angle prime and a 1:2 macro optic, offering the versatility of a general wide lens with the precision of a macro lens. Its advanced optical design is enhanced by a Super Spectra coating, which effectively controls flare and ghosting, ensuring greater contrast and color accuracy even in bright or backlit conditions. The lens is capable of focusing down to 6.7" at half life-size, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of photography, from close-ups of plants to street scenes and landscapes. The bright f/1.8 maximum aperture not only offers increased control over depth of field, but also adapts well to a variety of lighting conditions. To ensure sharper handheld shooting, the lens features a five-stop effective image stabilization system that minimizes the appearance of camera shake.

Great Walk Around Lens

I purchased this lens as a smaller and lighter alternative to my RF 24-70 f/2.8 L and 24-105 f/4 L for street photography. The lens produces sharp and colorful photos but I wouldn't use it for videos. The macro capabilities come in handy when walking around and want to photograph smaller, detailed subjects to expand my range of possibilities. This is something my two zoom lenses cannot do. For the price, size, weight, and capabilities, this little lens does a lot.

Great for low light

Took it to Arizona and Alaska this winter with an EOS RP. Captures a great deal of stars (greater if you amplify whites using Adobe Lightroom). The RP doesn't have IBIS so the 35mm with optical IS really helps, and even allowed me to photograph stars from the plane.

Great Lens with Crazy Focus Problem

it is a fantastic lens for price and size, but the focus is quite a big problem. It should have a focus limiter like the 85, because when you are on a documentary project and it is dark inside the focus starts to hunt and go to macro mode, which takes too much time and you loose some scenes and shots, that is really bad. I think it would be an easy fix if canon engineers develop a firmware update for cameras where you have a mode which disables the lens to go to macro mode (close focus), Like the button on the 85mm f2, just digital, because now it seems to be too late for a switch haha. I wish Canon would develop more high quality compact lenses for full frame mirrorless systems, i

Great lens

Great lens for the price. I am using as my go to lens over a 50mm lens. Gives a little more viewing options. Images turn out great. Camera R5.

The lens I love to hate

Pros - This lens takes great photos that are very sharp and the colors are great. It is lightweight and a good size. Cons - It is so noisy! And that noise is exacerbated by the fact that it has to hunt for focus way more often than any of my other RF lenses. Also, when it looses focus it retracts all the way back so it takes a maddeningly long time to find it again. I shoot documentary and I don't know how many moments I've been waiting for just the right expression or gesture and the lens just loses focus at the wrong moment and by the time it's finally back I've missed what I was looking for. My RF 28-70 never does this, and also never hunts in low light the way this lens does. I find this lens very frustrating to use and not on par with the rest of the RF lenses.

RF 35mm F1.8 Macro IS STM

Very sharp. Autofocus works great for my commercials when I’m short crewed or gimbaled. Light weight and the macro is amazing. IS makes gimbal unnecessary in some circumstances. Great value. Every RF owner should have this little jewel.
