A super fast lens designed for ASTROPHOTOGRAPHY!
This is a category where Canon is definitely lacking behind its rivals. I own the RF 15-35mm, which is an excellent lens that produces high quality images, but for astrophotography f/2.8 is too slow, compared to the best astro-lenses on the market. None of the other lenses Canon produce are truly suitable for astro. Sigma on the other hand has several lenses ideal for astro including the Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art as well as their newest dedicated astro-lens, the Sigma 14mm f/1.4 DG DN Art. Unfortunately NONE of these lenses come with an RF mount. The older 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art does come in an EF version, so if you want to use this, you need an EF-RF adaptor adding weight and bulk to your camera. However if you want to use Sigma's newest dedicated asto-lens, the 14mm f/1.4.... well you're out of luck!!
This lens does not come in an EF mount version, and for some unexplainable reason (to me at least), Sigma still hasn't been allowed to produce RF mount lenses (they only just begun producing a few RF-S mount lenses). So PLEASE Canon let Sigma produce an RF mount version of the Sigma 14mm f/1.4 DG DN Art OR release an original Canon RF ASTRO LENS (prime, 14 or 15mm, f/1.8 or faster, no coma). Thank you in advance
