RF 35mm f/1.8 IS Macro STM Lens, Black - 2973C002

لماذا تتعذار أنا احتاج إلي المال المنتج سي للغاية

I bought this lens used over Amazon at a savings of nearly $150 from the retail price. This is an excellent lens for a beginner on a budget like me trying to dig in and learn as much as I can about photography as quickly as I can (getting ready for the birth of my son preparing to take lots of pictures of him), while using the RF platform on the Canon EOS RP. Since the EOS RP lacks "in body image stabilization" (IBIS), this lens is a must have for someone just getting started with the RP or the R since it has image stabilization built in - that gives a needed advantage for low-light situations as well as handheld video recording. Considering how wide this focal length is (similar to the focal length of the main camera [*correction* - selfie camera] on an iPhone), it has an amazing level of bokeh - way beyond anything your phone's main camera could produce naturally. The fact that it can do macro photography as well is just fantastic, though you won't have the versatility you would have with a longer focal length like a 100mm macro lens (the Canon RF and EF mount 100mm macro lens is a beast, but at a price almost 3x that of this 35mm lens). The photo I included here of the lady bug was the best one I could take after taking multiple photos because the 35mm focal length requires getting very close to a subject you are trying to do macro photography work with. With something that is moving quickly but small, or which could get spooked by a shadow, a longer focal length would be better. This lens can be used for portraits, but in my experience the 50mm rf lens, even though it is not image stabilized, is a much better option. 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.

Great lens. Good price

"A Surprisingly Versatile Little Workhorse" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I picked up the Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 as a walkaround lens for my EOS R, and honestly, it’s blown me away. I wasn’t expecting to love it this much, but here we are. Sharp, Even Wide Open Images are crisp even at f/1.8, and that wide aperture gives a lovely depth of field. Great for portraits or low-light street shots. It’s not “L” glass, but the sharpness and contrast are genuinely impressive. Macro is a Bonus, Not a Gimmick The 0.5x macro capability is something I didn’t think I’d use much — until I did. It's great for capturing detail in flowers, food shots, even textures. You can get surprisingly close to your subject, and the results look professional. Lightweight but Not Cheap The build is solid for its price point. It’s plasticky, sure, but doesn’t feel flimsy. The size and weight are perfect for travel — throw it in your bag and go. Silent Focusing The STM motor is super quiet and pretty quick. Perfect for video work or discreet shooting in quiet environments. You won't wake the baby or scare off wildlife with this thing. The Only Con? No weather sealing. I wouldn’t take it out in a downpour, but for everything else, it’s handled beautifully. If you’re looking for a flexible, budget-friendly RF prime that punches way above its weight, this lens is a gem. It rarely leaves my camera these days.
