It doesn't bother me that Canon's RF 45mm f/1.2 lens doesn't have a red ring –this is why it's no problem

Two press pictures of Canon's RF 35mm F1.8 Macro STM and RF 45mm F1.2 STM lenses cutout and placed on a bright orange and red background.

I picked up my copy of the Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 IS STM Macro lens back in June last year – and to say it’s blown me away would be an understatement.

What's not to love? It’s a versatile optic with a standard wide focal length, sporting a fast f/1.8 aperture as well as a half-size macro mode, which opens up all sorts of interesting options when composing landscapes. It’s also more than sharp enough for what I need and it doesn't break the bank at well under 500 bucks.
