Under the discerning eye of the professional photographer, the Canon RF 85mm f/1.2 L USM lens emerges as a quintessential tool for capturing stunning portraits, evocative wedding photography, and high-fashion imagery. Its fixed 85mm focal length and exceptionally wide f/1.2 aperture not only excel in low-light conditions but also produce a beautifully soft bokeh that enhances the visual appeal of each photograph.The lens's rapid autofocus system pairs seamlessly with the Eye Detection AF feature of EOS R and EOS RP cameras, ensuring that the subject's eyes are sharply focused, bringing life and clarity to every portrait. The inclusion of Blue Spectrum Refractive Optics (BR) significantly diminishes chromatic aberration, while the Air Sphere Coating (ASC) combats lens flare and ghosting, ensuring that each image is captured with the highest fidelity and color accuracy.Crafted with 13 elements in 9 groups and a 9-blade aperture system, the RF 85mm f/1.

A wonderfully sharp lens that can be used wide open for one shot Milky Way photos.

My new favorite lens of all time

Was between this and the 50mm 1.2 for mostly cars and pet/people portraits. Very happy I chose the 85mm. The RF 70-200 was previously my favorite lens and I never imagined this would blow it out of the water. Everything looks incredible through this glass. People, cars, animals, you name it. Insanely sharp even wide open at f1.2. Dreamy bokeh, amazing colors, and fantastic clarity. The best lens I have ever owned in 15 years, hands down.

Stunning and sharp

Incredible lens! I regreat going cheap and getting the 2.0, even though that lens are alright, this one is next level. I never though I’d shoot at 1.2 but here I am! All day long! It’s heavy but so worth it! I wish I got this lens before! Just buy it! I use a lot my 28 70 and though that the 85 wounds be a big difference from the 70 mm but it is! It’s amazing

I'm so pleased that I went with this lens. Nevermind the price because it'll pay for itself in the long run.

$$$$$

All I smell when I take this lens out is money. Before and during the purchase all I thought about was the cost. But now that I own it, all I think about is how much money this beauty is bringing in. Before switching to mirrorless I was more partial to the EF 50mm f1.2 and EF 135mm f2. Now I have found my favorite RF lens. Yes, I know the bokeh is beautiful. But that attribute is really second to the beautiful rendering, sharpness and accurate focus on my R5. Some people whine about the slow focusing. But in reality, it is not that slow. Compared to the EF 85mm f1.2L II it is like a hare passing the turtle. Sure it's not the best stop action sports lens but more useful that it's older counterpart. Oh yeah, that older counterpart was also not sharp, had bad CA and corner fall off. My copy has already paid for itself and has put enough in the coffers to purchase the RF 35mm f1.2 when it arrives. A fir the weight. It is offset to my by the light weight of the R5 compared to the 1DX II i parted with when I switched.

It's Magical ***

For the Zillion dollars it cost, it should be magical. Guess What? IT IS. The focus along with the shallow depth of field makes you a 9th degree photographer. I am blown away. Not to get too dramatic but I think it is the smooth drop off from the target toward the out of focus area. Yea, I know---bokeh, but it's more than that. Big $$$ and Big results!!

Amazing bokeh

This is an amazing lens! Super sharp and beautiful bokeh. It’s very fast too. Only downside is that it’s super heavy!
