This video is gold, thanks for sharing! I was looking for something like this for so long!

Anyone tried RF 20mm 1.4 on water?

The news I was waiting for so long!! Lets see how both will perform underwater!

Hello! Recently I took some photos and it was clear that the lettering on the lens was reflected on the port since I always get a reflection that has no other explanation. I had heard about this before, but it happened to me for the first time. How do you cover the colors of the logos on the front of the lens? What’s the best technique? I’ve seen that Ikelite has some rings, but not for my lens. Other brands don’t seem to invest in this. Thanks!

🫠 what a flop ahahah!

They say phones and AI will kill photography, but what I see is each year more units are sold!!

I would be really surprised if not a RF-S lens! 14-35 f4L killer?

Hello people Newest Canon RF 20mm 1.4 L is the astrophotography photographers dream, super sharp, but I was thinking if it would be a good option underwater? Anyone tried it? Cheers!

Yes :(! Unfortunately it's little "old school" no AF this days...

Hello, New launch, could be interesting for Canon RF users since we don't have a native RF fisheye lens. Min. focus = 16 cm. Price: $699. Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 FF Zoom Fisheye is a full-frame lens designed for photographers and content creators seeking bold, creative perspectives. It delivers a dual fisheye effect with a versatile zoom range and an ultra-fast f/2.8 aperture, guaranteeing a jaw-dropping visual style for stunning imagery. An unparalleled flexibility is provided to vloggers, content creators, and photographers for capturing expansive landscapes, compact cities, action sports, and 360° panoramas. Mount: Sony E / Nikon Z / Canon RF / L Mount

In fact, this new Canon RF lens retracts when zooming from 16mm to 28mm. At 16mm:

I've never tested, but I've read that this new Canon 16-28 2.8 is shaper than the Canon 15-35 2.8 L and new Canon 28-70 2.8 is shaper than Canon 24-70 2.8. Can this be possible? I would love to someone test it underwater, even if we just use it at 16 mm!

Hello people, the new Canon RF 16-28 mm 2.8 is small (99.1 mm), light and reviews says it is very sharp. Minimum focus distance is just 0.20 m (vs Canon RF 15-35 mm 2.8 that is 0.28 m). What do you guys think of it underwater? Anyone tried? I'm curious about this new setup (since Canon doesn't have a new RF fisheye yet). Cheers!

Cool report! Snorkeling with the tigers not possible, right?

Wow I would just poo myself being there without a cage.

Sure! =D Being on topic, I would ask about RF 24mm macro what would be minimum dome to work good on corners? I also never thought about this particular lens to underwater photography.

I would just add latest Canon RF 16mm 2.8 to discussion.

Welcome @ColdDarkDiver!! I see you bought Canon RF 14-35 mm f4 > Canon RF 16 mm f2.8 > Canon EF 8-15 mm! What's your feedback after all this time, what are you using? 😄

I see, but Ikelite chart has a smaller dome model for RF 16 mm 2.8 as option 1 that is 6" size (however name is 8" compact). null

Got it! However, Kenko works with latest Canon RF mirrorless bodies or we need to keep a DSLR?

Interesting in Kenko website they say: "Tele converter is designed to be used with tele and super tele lenses. It is not recommended to use it with lenses with focal length from 50mm and shorter. It may affect the quality of the image." Not our experience here.

Awesome content here. Any reason with people prefer like Kenko 1.4x TC than Canon 1.4x TC?

Thanks, I will check the old wetpixel. I would love to see some full-resolution photos to check the quality before buying. Also, it's pretty weird to me Nauticam chart recommends a huge 230 mm dome for RF 15-35 mm 2.8 L with min. focus of 28 cm and RF 16 mm 2.8 with a with a min. focus of 13 cm. Shouldn't it improve?

In fact min focus distance of 28 cm is a little worry.

Thank you so much! Photophotons entrance pupil database looks very good. However I would like to shoot shipwrecks near home too, that's why I'm trying to avoid "fisheye" look.
