The f/2 aperture is definitely more than plenty for background separation, it features a decent amount of Macro capabilities and is even stabilized. You can’t go wrong with this purchase. There’s always the f/1.2 version but that’s gonna be a pretty penny compared to this. Sigma and Tamron don’t yet have access to the RF mount so it’s your best bet at the moment.

Because Canon is seen as a luxury brand and Sony is seen as the hip brand. So people automatically have to hate on Nikon because “someone has to suck”. Fuji is just in the back ground and doesn’t get the hate because they’re “not in the pro space”

That's definitely one way to look at it. One can argue that Sony is the new 'luxury' brand because they're now (mostly) more expensive cameras than Canon but you do make a good point. A case could also be made that Fuji's GFX system is definitely aimed at professionals.

I remember going out and bringing in the range cattle for winter with him and my father when he was 96. His little brother 104, his little sister, an alcoholic, 86. All ate meat daily.

I'm sorry, but disagree with you Francis. I am not a meat eater [not vegan, but vegetarian, because I do eat eggs and cheese] and the "faux" plant based "meats" being created are toxic to our bodies, because they are filled with preservatives. Our bodies struggle to process these preservatives and I will NOT eat impossible meats.. I do agree with VInnie on the "Impossible meats" out there and for my health have quit eating them. As stated, I don't eat meat, butI do agree with you that animals are cruelly killed. If they were processed, as they were in Biblical times, the animal would feel no pain when killed for food. Our nation is fat, sick, and nearly dead because of the foods that people eat. On another note, not sure why you needed to include a Ukraine pic in your rebuttal. That was off and unnecessary..

@FranciscoAlvarezTV Месяц назад
Don't be sorry. I love having conversations with the other side of the aisle; that's how we grow. I'll tell you this much: Impossible Meats does NOT advertise themselves as a 'healthier' option...BUT...they are MUCH better for you than meat that is pumped with antibiotics and growth hormones. They too have preservatives, you know. All food HAS to go through some sort of 'process'. For meat to exist, for example, a cow has to be killed against her will, the food cleansed, injected with the aforementioned substances, packaged, shipped and sold. That is literally a 'process'. I hate to break it to you but cows aren't killed via hugs or tickles. I don't care what anyone tells you: they suffer and suffer PLENTY. There is NO SUCH THING as 'humane' deaths. There is no humanity in killing needlessly and I'm willing to be anything in the world you stopped eating meat because it didn't sit well with you. I agree about the 'nation' statement 100%.

I don't have a gripe at all. Cine lenses for wedding photography? Let's not kid ourselves. Honestly, I'd just love to see Canon step their game up and make some L quality glass that doesn't necessarily have to be f/1.2. They have a rich history of L glass at f/1.4. I honestly don't know what's taking them so long to put out a 50mm and/or an 85mm f/1.4. Being shown up by Nikon like this isn't a good look...and of course I don't want to adapt, nobody does.
