You know, I wouldn't be surprised if this became one of their bestselling lenses.
All in all, this is a pretty impressive new lens. Having that fast f/2 aperture and this level of optical quality, all in a lens which is very nearly as practical and convenient as a regular 24-70mm, is such a fantastic combination.
This thing is an absolute stills photography workhorse, it really is.
All in all, I have been hugely impressed with this lens. It is effectively that 24-70 which we're all used to, but with these video features to make it this hybrid lens style which Canon talk about, and that alone is very, very interesting.
It's smaller, it's lighter; this lens is pretty much better in every way than the previous generation that was released nearly a decade ago now.
So all in all, the S5 II / IIX is a really fascinating camera. It improves upon everything which we loved about the original S5, which I always said would be one of my favorite cameras on the market if it only had phase detect autofocus.
Canon know how to make a practical camera which people enjoy using and early signs point towards the Canon EOS R6 Mark II being one of their best.
I've got to say I'm really impressed and been enjoying my time with the camera so far.
Ergonomically, this is a much nicer camera and more professional feeling camera to use than the Mark II was.
